I'll start by saying that I'm sure this is not a G-Skill problem, but I hoped maybe you could shed some light on what's happening.
I have a X79-UD5 with 8 x F3-14900CL10-8GBZL installed for a total of 64GB. This worked fine under Gigabyte’s bios 13p. I recently updated to 13w and even though the bios states that the full 64GB is there, all my OS installs (Win 7, Linux, others) report 60GB. It seems the stick in slot 6 is reporting as 4GB.
Gigabyte insists that it’s my OS. Reverting back to 13p fixed it.
Are there any bios settings I should look for that may cause such behaviour? The latest bios did fix a couple things and I’d like to use it, but of course not at the expense of having memory problems (well, computer memory problems anyway.)
