Ok, I sent back the cheap Crucial XMS2 RAM and splurged on the Mushkin XP2-8500 4GB RAM (x2 so I'm running 8GB).
I am happy to say that now the system booted right up with all 4 sticks installed. Woo hoo!
So, now I want more. MORE DAMMIT! Heh heh...
Can the Gigabyte gurus, especially LSDMEASAP suggest the best settings to get my system rockin? Here's my specs:
Antec Sonata III case
Antec NeoHE 550 power supply
Gigabyte EP45-DS3R motherboard (bios rev F10)
Intel E8500-E0 CPU using Zalman CNPS9500AT cooler
2x (8GB) Mushkin 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) p/n 996599
EVGA/Nvidia Geforce 260 core 216 video card
I'm looking to overclock while keeping the system stable. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
