Title: GA Z87X OC restarts even when not asked.....
Post by: Ecosse on January 15, 2014, 07:46:47 pm
Hey

I upgraded my build from a GA X58A UDH7 - I7 930 - 6GB Kingston HyperX 1600 Mhz
to GA- Z87X OC - 4770K - 16Gb Kingston HyperX BEAST MEMORY DDR3 2400 MHz CL11 Intel XMP DIMM

probs started  when i booted for the first time i had  issues with the gpu didn work so the screen was black
tryed about everything  first i got the onboard gpu working and after about 4 hours bingo my GTX680 worked
but stil havind some  issues right now
pc is running and all of a sudden restarts or give a blue screen ,
sometimes if i use sleepmode and i want to wake it up it starts up but the screen stays black
it was a clean install of W7 Ultimate
all drivers are up to date
been thinking its the wrong choise to use kingston memory ( never had a prob with this on any giga mobo)ore its my ssd thats start to fail
been checking my ssd (corsair force 3 ) with the corsair ssd toolbox and there are no errors displayed didn have probs with it on my X58A ??
i did see with the use of gigabyte EZ setup that it shows my ssd but its says WARNING : SSD DRIVE NOT DETECTED ??
did try to change my memory speed to 1333 than 1600 ,1866,2000,2400 but still the same
Bios is updated to F6
sometimes i see lines comming up to the screen  so maybe its my gpu thats giving problems its a Gigabyte GTX680 4Gb OC 1year old ??

any help ore comment would be welcome
grts

How many stick of memory do have? People have been having problem with 4 sticks. Just try it with 2 sticks.
