Memory Not Recognized...Problem?

[crspangenberg]

Gentlemen, I was going through my setting and I noticed that only one ram chip is recognized as DDR3, and the other is not... Also it is only showing at 1333mhz, although i have set the multiplier to = 1600mhz i will double check to see if those setting are still correct. But will this cause any problems for my system?

Update: Memory is showing Correct @ 1600mhz but the other is still not recognized as DDR3.

I have same issue, however it fixes itself automatically if you install 2 more sticks. I would not loose sleep on this one, all of my builds react the same way...

Bobcat cudos to you my friend you seem to have an answer for everything!

I think it's because the ram is next to eachother. If you have 2 sticks of ram put them in the in the slots that are the same color not next to eachother.

Like:
Slot 1: empty
Slot 2: 4GB
Slot 3: empty
Slot 4: 4GB

Has nothing to do with next to each other, I always install RAM as per slot # in manual and it shows to skip slots and use same color...
