Hi everyone,
I have difficulty getting my new 2 x ADATA 2GB DDR2 800MHz to work with GA-EP45-DS3 (BIOS version F9).
My other related components are:
Core 2 Quad 8200 running at stock frequency (333MHz x 7 = 2.33GHz)
Gigabyte nVidia GTX460 1GB
Enermax Modu 82+ 525w PSU
Previously I was using 2 x ADATA Extreme 1GB DDR2 1066MHz with the system, everything worked fine.
However, suppliers no longer have the Extreme edition RAM's now, so I bought 2 x 2GB DDR2 800MHz instead, to form a 4GB without mixing.
Each of the DDR2 800MHz works fine on its own. However, when combined together (in same channel or separate channels), or when using one of them (800MHz) with either one or both of my existing 1GB DDR2 1066MHz, system runs into blue screen within 1-60 seconds into Windows. I have tried tweaking MCH voltages and RAM timings, but none of them worked. I did not do memtest86+ tests, because the new RAM's work fine when only one is plugged in.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
