Hey guys.
I've recently built my new system and have had absolutely nothing but problems with my RAM from the get go.
I'm using the 4gb kit of OCZ3P16004GK RAM, on an EVGA 790i Ultra motherboard.
The ram is rated for 7-7-7-24 timings at 1600 mhz @ 1.9V, but i have not been able to achieve anywhere close to this.
In fact, i can't get the ram to run stable at any voltage/timing/speed combination. I've basically tried everything. I have talked to OCZ and they've given me some different voltages to put my Nforce SPP at, but it has made no difference.
I've also taken out each module individually and tested them, but they do the same thing. Theyll lock up either right when vista loads up, or a few minutes afterward once i start playing a game or something.
I am planning to run memtest tomorrow while i'm at work, cause it takes a long time .
But i have this grim feeling inside of me that its a compatibility issue with my motherboard, and im gonna get screwed over somehow..
I really hope they'll do something for me though.. I don't want to see 300 some odd dollars go right down the toilet.
Has anyone else had similar problems? or has any input? It'd be greatly appreciated.
