Wired Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 First, they recommended the WRONG memory. Guaranteed-Compatible Memory for your Asus P6T Deluxe That memory is compatible, but you should get a triple pack so you can use the triple channel memory controller instead of only dual channel. Return that memory and get a triple pack. As of the missing 8 MB, it's probably something doing it in your BIOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markino Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 thank you for the quicly answer. what if i'll buy another twin3-2048-1333-c9? i've placed the first twin on slot 1-2 and the second 3-4 so i've the 5-6 free buying the 3rd twin i can go triple channel but i don't know if it's compatible. in the list that you suggest me there isn't the pack that i've got. http://www.corsair.com/configurator/memory_results.aspx?id=172004 as you can see tha asus p6t deluxe is not listed. what should i do? Thank you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Buying a 2nd pair will just cause more problems, as then at best you'll be attempting mix memory that hasn't been tested together, and at worst you'll be attempting to mix ICs. Go back to the reseller that recommended that PC and ask them to swap the memory for the right memory (e.g. a triple pack). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markino Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 oh nice, i have 2 pair of this ram can you suggest me the best pack for p6t deluxe? shall i fill all the six slot or just three? i mean, 3x2gb or 6x1gb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 The less # of sticks the better. All of the compatible memory sticks are in the link I posted earlier. For the same speed @ 6 GB, go with TR3X6G1333C9. If you're planning on going for 12 GB, go for HX3X12G1333C9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A: And the answer is Yes these modules support XMP and XMP = Intel Extreme Memory Profile Multiple SPD profiles Enables preset or user-defined memory profiles that can be selected depending on usage model. For example, an aggressive low-latency profile could be used during intense gaming while the default memory setting can be used for everyday home computing, such as home office or web browsing.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 15, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 15, 2009 I am sorry but I am lost as to what you are looking for. Just go to BIOS setup and load setup defaults and enable XMP Profile 1 is all you have to do to enable it. There is no secret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 In otherwords, the motherboard manual will tell you how to enable / disable the XMP profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
