Bad RAM, weird issue..

[Ruger22C]

One stick in either ram slot works.. Both sticks in both slots crashes quickly..

What's going on?

Need more vdimm or looser timings when both slots are populated.

 

[Ruger22C]

Did.

Went as slow as possible and up to 1.4v over spec.

Then must be something with the mem controller. I see you got AMD which I have no experience with, someone else will have to help you there.

No matter what settings I use, even with extra volts or with VERY loose timings, I can only use 1 stick of RAM at a time. Now when I memtest, both pass the test. Both slots work, too.

One stick shows up in memtest as 377 the other as 556mhz
Why is that?

Also, that MHZ depends what slot it's in.. When I put both in 377 slots, it still crashes.

I see that you updated your sig. Were you using a phenom II X3, iirc? Did you unlock the extra core before you had these issues?
