Actually I didn't run my RAM sticks at 7-7-7-21 to begin with. I had them at 9-9-9-24 or something like that which is auto option from BIOS.
My system runs quite stable now with just one stick of RAM instead of two.
I fixed my problem by taking out one of my RAM sticks so now I'm operating on one 2GB G.Skill stick.
I don't think either one is defective so it must be the dual channel that's messing my system up.
What gives?
I would suspect so as well.
Is any other program that I can use to test out my memory or hard drive other than memtest 86? I use Win7 Ultimate 64 bit OS and would like to run the testing software during the windows session instead of booting from an external source like USB, etc.
Hi there, I've built a new system recently and been having the strangest problem. First, my system specs are the following (all running stock, no overclocking):
- AMD Phenom x4 955 3.2GHZ Black Edition
- Gigabyte 770TA-UD3 Motherboard
－ Gigabyte GTX 460 Fermi 1GB Graphics Card
- Seagate...
Thanks a lot guys, I listened to most of your advices and changed my specs to the following (bolded are changes):
Case: Coolermaster CM 690 Mid Tower Black ATX Case 5X5.25 5X3.5INT No PS - $59.99
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Quad Core Processor 3.2GHZ AM3 - $161.90
Motherboard...
thanks for the heads up on the GPU. My question is does Geforce GTX 460 go well with my AMD setup? Also will there be any compatibility issue with my G-Skill ram sticks (which I read is more suitable for a Pentium setup) and my current AMD setup?
Hi, I just built my new system and would like opinions on the parts as well as any compatibility issues that I may run into.
My budget was around C$1000 (Canadian Dollars) and my goal is to use the system to play all the latest games but namely Starcraft 2. If you think I'm getting my parts...
