bmgordon7 Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Ok, so upon building my first machine it seems I have some RAM problems. The problem is that not all of the RAM shows up all of the time. Whenever I tweak the RAM in the BIOS and then start the computer it shows the full 6 gigs of RAM. However, when I turn off or restart the computer it reverts back to 4 gigs. What could be causing this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmgordon7 Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 Could anyone post me the settings for my Corsair TR3X6G1600C9 XMS3 6 GB 3 X 2 GB PC3-12800 1600MHz 240-Pin DDR3 Tri-Channel Intel Core i7 Memory Kit running on an Asus Rampage Gene III motherboard? It seems the computer won't recognize the entire 6 gigs of ram when I change the the frequency to 1600 mhz from 1066 mhz. Any help would be great.

Yellowbeard Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Try the XMP setting and see what it sets. Also, the timings and voltage are printed on your sticker. If you still have an issue after setting XMP, check the sticky post at the top of the DDR3 section for troubleshooting X58 systems showing the wrong memory amount. Thread moved to DDR3 section.
