HDTV Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Bios see's or reports 3 gig out of 4 (dual chn) Same for windows XP CPUZ reports all 4 sticks & all in dual chn (as do a few benchmark programs) This I can live with... However, the mobo wants to run my DDR400 @ DDR333. What would the correct way of getting my ram speed back to DDR400? I am a total n00b when it comes to this board (owned for just 6 days) & the bios having run Asus boards & bios for many many years prior to this.

rbarone69 Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Put both sticks in the orange slots (2 and 4) Check the MOBO documentation it explains more about different configurations and what's to be expected. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, but that would be 4 (FOUR) sticks of 1 gig matched pairs.. 2 orange, two yellow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chow7 Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 do u have all of the same memory, or are you using whats in your sig. You may have to have all of the same type of memory Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaMaverick Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 DFI says this is normal behavior for memory greater than 3 gigs. I forget where I read this but if you search around in the forum you should stubble upon this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isnt there something in the manual about 4xdouble sided sticks? It runs @ DDR333 for some reason? Not sure about the 3gb problem though.

Yeah there is, I don't know why they say this though cause I was able to avoid that. Mine is running smoothly at DDR500.
