I think this is as much of an X58 issue as it is a MB/Ram issue. I just pulled my new gigabyte x58a UD7 because i couldnt get the 12gb to concistently show up. every once in a while it would work, and it would normally work the best after a CPU reseat. It would go back to only showing 10gb in a day or two. Re-installed my classified and it worked great for a few hours, many differnt settings, then poof, 10gb just like the UD7. I'm using a TRUE 1366 with the stock mounting brackets. It also happend to me with an ASUS. I was using 9gb and sometimes only 6gb would show. That was different memory and different cpu cooler. This is such a strange bug. So many different things that work for select people, but nothing concrete. There is no "Do This and it will for sure work" solution. X58 has been out long enough that you'd think the cause would be known by now. Maybe differnt RAM is next for me..... I dunno. It's driving me crazy though. I have about $1500 tied up in 2 motherboards and 12gb of ram. Frustrating!!!!





I'm still having memory issues with 12gb. Voltages dont help at all. If i can get it to post with 12, i'm ok.. until i reboot, then 10gb. 12gb ran great on the classified. I'll RMA the UD7 and hope to get a better one. Maybe they'll be out of stock and refund me instead..... Ok powering down for the chore...bbl as a trader.... so sorry
