    Could be a faulty stick of RAM or a faulty board. With a striker 2 who knows, they're notoriously unreliable.

    Try various combinations of sticks and slots to be sure, if not, probably the board, as I say, Strikers go wrong quite often.

    You did plug the 4-pin CPU power connector into the XFX board didn't you?
