    Hi aldan,
    I was just going to pull ddp’s chain because I don’t think he realized that jerecho had a new mobo and bios with a mem test tool. With that, one doesn’t have to pull all of the mem sticks and rotate them through all the sockets. It only takes 2 or 3 swaps and 2 or 3 Max boots to determine all of the bad sockets and bad mem sticks. I think maybe that’s why jerecho was ignoring ddp’s suggestion to rotate the sticks one at a time. Lol
    It looked like jerecho was doing it properly but maybe having a little trouble getting the ram seated good.
    Anyway, young folks don’t do the single rotate method because they don’t have the patience and the old guys have peed on enough fences to have figured out some short cuts. LOL

    never peed on a fence but did touch an electrified cattle fence once to see what it felt & it didn't phase me at all.

    So that's why you're a little short in the experience department...
    Good judgement comes from experience and experience comes from a LOT of bad judgement. LOL

    try being the last one in a line of people with the first one touching the fence.anyway back to topic.to the op,have you checked if there were any bios updates that address this issue?make sure also that it isnt a case of a bios update for the board to support your cpu.seen that happen before.

    I just spoke with Asus support and he said that the RAM wasn't on the qualified vendor list and said it isn't compatible. If it's not compatible then why would any of it work? The part number of the RAM is F3-2400C10D-16GTX
