Hi, i'm new to tom's hardware and building pc's so be kind :).

Built my first pc a couple of years ago specs as follows: i7 920 D0, asus p6t se, corsair xms 888 24 6 x 2gb sticks (12gb), cm 900w psu. I have been wanting to oc my i7 so i got the h100i the other day all fine just wanted to know more about the software, like what do the little numbers mean in the red circles? And what do the different groups mean like h100i temp, and i7 920 and why do the fans act differently for different groups?

Right onto the main reason why i'm here, after fitting my h100i i booted up my pc and windows home premium 7 64bit is only recognizing 8gb and not 12gb of ram what has happened to 4gb of my ram all 6 sticks are in, before i fitted the h100i windows did recognize 12gb. Any help much appreciated.

You have bad connection 2 of 6 RAM modules
Power OFF
Reconnect all RAM modules
If the problem is still there you maybe have 1 or 2 faulty ones
Take all aout and add 1 -> power ON -> you have 2 GB -> repeat to all 5 left -> if you have trouble POWER on or beep error -> faulty RAM
Add all 1 by one -> look for sum. RAM
