Intel i5-750
Gigabyte P55M-UD2, latest BIOS
Coolermaster Hyper 212+ CPU heatsink
MSI GTS 250 1GB
OCZ 500W ModxStream PSU
4GB of G.Skill F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ (2x2GB DIMMs) - rated DDR3 1600 1.5v 9-9-9-24
Just recently assembled this system for a friend and have been unable to get it stable yet, even at stock clock speed & auto voltages (RAM voltage/timings manually set) I've yet to OC my other p55/i5 system, and had no difficulties setting it up, so don't really know what I'm doing when it comes to tinkering on the P55 platform. I'm not after much, stable @ stock would be fine, at most an OC of 3.2-3.4ghz would be nice.
The system seems to freeze solid (hard reboot required) randomly while idle, often after under a minute idle/without load. I've tried a bunch of different settings that I've seen recommended, and the system has tested +2 hrs linpack or 3hrs prime95 largeFFT stable with a few different configs, yet each has either locked up soon after the load ended, or BSOD'ed when running Sandra CPU benchmarks right after hrs of prime95 load, frozen shortly after boot while at idle, etc....
Obviously I've missed something, but I've yet to find anyone with a similar config and only 4GB of this RAM (DDR3 1600 1.5v 9-9-9-24 rated), so I've been hesitant to try the solutions offered for ppl running 8GB or RAM rated @ 1.65v
Will post followups with changes to my settings as I try stumble through finding a solution
