Hi all,
I'm putting together a new system and I'm having problems with my RAM (Corsair CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10). I think one stick is failing because if i only use that one the computer blue screens, will reset or simply freeze on bootup. The computer is fine if I just use the other stick.
I ran memtest on the one stick overnight (7 passes) but it didn't get any errors. So that really confused me. I tried removing the video card (Gigabyte Radeon HD 7850) and use the onboard video but that didn't help.
The RAM is on the supported list of my motherboard (Gigabyte H77M-D3H with version F9 BIOS) so I don't think compatibility is an issue.I'm using BIOS default settings. I did try XMP profile but that didn't work either.
Any suggestions?
