nikonnut Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Hello all, I have a question about my 12 GB RAM kit (H3X312G1333C9). I have it installed on an Asus P6T7 WS Supercomputer with a core i7-950 processor and a GTX 480 GPU running off a HX850W PSU. I just finished a 30 hour run with Prime95 to check temps, etc. Ok,cool, all is well. Time to give memtest86+ a try. Start the run and the errors start (I got to about 200 and stopped). Pull all the sticks and start testing them one by one. 4th stick in pops an error. Ah ha! Finish testing the rest and throw the offending stick back in. No errors this time. Odd, but yay! Start testing them 3 at a time and the batch with the bad (maybe) stick starts showing errors. So I'm guessing it really is bad but am I missing anything? It just seems weird that a stick would test bad and then good. What should I do? Thank for the input and advice. Cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikonnut Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 Quick update. I now have all 6 stick running stable( I think. I made it through 2 passes of memtest86+) at 1066MHz and the DRAV voltage set at 1.4v in the BIOS. Time to try 1333 MHz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikonnut Posted December 3, 2010 Author Share Posted December 3, 2010 Well. I definitely have a bad stick so I fixed it the old fashioned way. I now have 3x4GB of Dominator 1600C9 installed. Very nice and I can RMA the other kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
