Title: GA-Z68XP-UD3-iSSD Memory
Post by: ceejaybee on October 28, 2012, 10:37:45 am

Hi,

I wonder if anyboy can help me, ahould a GA-Z68XP-UD3-iSSD and an i7 3770K work with this Hynix HMT31GR7CFR4C-PB memory - https://www.skhynix.com/products/computing/view.jsp?info.ramKind=20&info.serialNo=HMT31GR7CFR4C

I have tried it, and the PC just keeps restarting itself and never gets to the BIOS screen. It is a new motherboard, and I'm not sure if this combination is supposed to work, or the mothjerboard is faulty.

Thanks,

Chris

I think I've just answered my own question, that RAM is Registered (buffered) RAM, which, from what I can find, that motherboard doesn't support. Does that make sense?

Cheers,

Chris

Hi Chris,

yes that would make sense as the motherboard supports non-ECC memory modules. I would RMA the RAM and get something such as Corsair Vengeance or similar.
