Hey guys, are P35 boards known to have memory stability issues with all memory? I can't seem to get my DFI to pass either the DOS or windows Memtest with any 2x2gb modules.

I've been through 3 sets of Ballistix and my current Corsair. I thought maybe at first it was because my old case couldn't properly cool them, but I just moved to the Antec 900, and still get errors. Is it this particular board, or just the chipset in general?

I'd like to OC, but if I can't even pass Memtest at stock, I'd probably end up frying something.

I have a Gigabyte P35 board and I've never had any issues with Corsair, Crucial or Kingston memory.
