    Z87-UD5H and G.Skill F3-12800CL8D-8GBMX issue

    I have 4 sticks of G.Skill F3-12800CL8D-8GBMX totaling 16GB. Memory worked fine for two years in ASUS mb.
    In Gigabyte z87-ud5h only two sticks, in any combination, work stable, even can be easily overclocked.
    All four will give me BSOD in Windows. Raising voltage, setting manual loose timings, even downclocking memory to 1333, won't help. Memtest 86+ found no errors.
    Seen reviews on newegg people having same issue with same memory and Z87-ud3h motherboard....

    Re: Z87-UD5H and G.Skill F3-12800CL8D-8GBMX issue

    Do you have two 2x4GB kits of G.Skill F3-12800CL8D-8GBXM memory?
    The G.Skill Ram Configurator shows that one 2x4GB kit is supported ==> http://www.gskill.com/en/configurato...307&model=1355
    It looks like G.Skill has quite a few 4x4GB 1600MHz memory kits that should work with your motherboard.

    Post in the G.Skill TweakTown Forum, include a link to this thread and see if Matt can give you some suggestions.
    You might need to buy one 2x8GB kit or one 4x4GB kit to be stable with 16GB of memory with your Z87-UD5H.

      Yes, This is two kits of G.Skill F3-12800CL8D-8GBXM memory.
      People report issue with 4x4GB similar G.Skill kits. I think the problem is the motherboard's BIOS :-(

        Re: Z87-UD5H and G.Skill F3-12800CL8D-8GBMX issue

        It's very common for some memory compatibility issues to be resolved as the bios matures.
        Good things sometimes come to those who wait.

              This your kit in 4x4GB combination works fine for Sandy and Ivy Brigde.

              For Haswell system GB rotate DIMM sockets for 180 degree to decrease memory data travel time to CPU ,
              with implementation something similar as Asus T-Topology (which is original from Intel).
              In this new 4x4GB combination ,memory is giving better results.....but must be for
              XMP Support For 4th Gen Intel Core CPUs & Z87.

              2x4Gb no problem,as is not affected by this topology.

              So,any 4x4GB will be OK as per memory approved list:
              http://download.gigabyte.us/FileList/Memory/mb_memory_ga-z87x-ud5h.pdf


              Btw,to be honest, I don't think so GBT will fix your memory model in BIOS (as is outdated.....this is price of new speedy technology).

                Looks like I've got it to work by disabling UEFI options, switched to Legacy BIOS.
                At least it have not BSOD for whole day and memory runs with XMP profile enabled.
                Thank you all for support!

                    Hi, can you elaborate a bit? What would UEFI have to do w/ the issue on using 4 RAM's? Could this be a solution too for the UD3H board? Sorry, I haven't used UEFI yet as I'm just about to upgrade my old PC and been researching about a similar GB board that I'd like to get this week (Z87x-UD3H), w/c has similar issues. Thanks.

                      Two different sets of firmware subsystems.
                      UEFI is meant to replace BIOS, so it more complex. BIOS is old, simple and more developed.
                      If I would you, I would of wait a little before upgrading now. I see too many issues with Z87 boards.

                        I see. I never saw UEFI yet, as my PC is still a EP45-D3L using BIOS, and I was already planning to upgrade this week. So what do you suggest, upgrade to another brand / socket / etc.?

                          I am a bit perplexed by this. What kind of UEFI options did you disable? And what effect does switching to legacy bios have? Isn't uefi and bios just interfaces, your commands are the same either way?

                            I suggest to wait, next chipset revision. By that time Intel fixes USB 3 wake-up issue and manufactures, hopefully, will fix all firmware issues.

                              Not interfaces, but hardware abstraction layer.
                              Basic Input/Output System (BIOS).
                              UEFI is meant to replace BIOS. UEFI provides more functionality, it includes all Legacy BIOS functions and adds a lot of new..
                              I am not saying that disabling UEFI is a solution for memory issues. It just happened to work for me.
                              IMHO all memory and other issues people are having all because of motherboard firmware is not good enough.
