New Ram puts me back to the drawing Board.

OK so just posted the other day that I hit 4Ghz stable with my i7-920. Well I was running off of just 6G ram. Well I received my other 6GB today putting my total to 12G. Well since the upgrade, I cannot even change the blck without the MB failing to post. I get E2, 68, 02 error codes. I cant seem to find much on those as well so im puzzled as to why this is happening. I can boot stock just fine by resetting the cmos and setting to stock.

Are the additional DIMMs exactly identical? If not that's why. By "identical", I mean EXACTLY identical - same SKU, same brand, same exact mirror image DIMMs. You should always buy 100% identical DIMMS for more than one channel.

 

[justin4pack]

Yea they are the exact same

 

[blackened23]

Yea they are the exact same

x58 is tri channel isn't it (IIRC, it's been a long time)? Did you replace all of the DIMMs?

Anyway, maybe lower the memory timings? Use XMP profiles?

 

[justin4pack]

Correct tri channel. No just bought another triple set. The old ones were working fine. I'll try xmp.

 

[justin4pack]

So with this bios. I don't see an xmp profile setting anywhere. The ram was set to 1066 .so I did change it to 1333. The timings are now showing correct at 999-24.

Try to memtest all the new sticks.

Try increasing your dram volts to 1.56-1.579v etc.
When I added 3x4 more gskill sniper 1600 9-9-9-24 I had to raise my dram volts from 1.489v to 1.564 just to get the pc to start.
I was running 3x2 gskill pi 7-8-7-24 at 1.489v until I added more ram.
It also could be your ram multiplier is changing when you change your bclk.
