Just set up new system and I've only got one issue. I bought four sticks of G.Skill DDR3 1600 8GB CL7 ram. The motherboard has four memory slots and I wanted to populate them all. I installed all four modules. Board would not post. Gave error of memory not installed. I tried reseating. No luck. Put one stick in default location. No luck. Tried all four slots one at a time. One stick at a time. Nothing worked. Was on slot 4 on my last stick and it booted up. Everything worked and I was able to install windows. Also changed timing from default to the XMP settings.
I tested the G.Skill ram in my P6T Deluxe v2. Worked without issue. Used my working ram (in my sig) and tested out the new mobo. Same as before. Would not work in any slot except for the last one.
So, what else can I try or do I send the mobo back to Amazon? I've had it a week.
CPU: 4790K
Mobo: Asus Z97-WS
PSU: SeaSonic 850 Platinum
SSD: SanDisk Extreme Pro 480gb
