I have:

Motherboards:
M1* Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3
M2* ECS P67H2-A3

Memory:
R1* Kingston HyperX blu ------- 2x4GB 1600MHz
R2* Kingston HyperX Genesis - 2x4GB 1600MHz
R3* Kingston HyperX Beast ---- 4x8GB 1600MHz

PC1:
Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3
Intel i7 2600 @4.1GHz

PC2:
ECS P67H2-A3
Intel i5 2500K @3.3GHz

I used a PC1 with 16GB (R1+R2) - and my PC work correctly.
I bought a 32GB (R3) and put on the PC1 - and my PC work very slow and CPU usаge is 50%~100%.
I disconnected one slot from (R3) and my PC1 work correctly with 24GB.
I try R3 memory on PC2 and work fine.
I work video editing BluRay rendering 3h-6h per day.
Tell me is it wise to put the M2 on PC1 or something else to do?
 
Solution
On the Z68, make sure you have the latest BIOS, reset the CMOS, install the 32GB, enable XMP and see if all show up and runs OK....Have a feeling it's in the Advanced timings/voltages...if problem persist...jot down the advanced DRAM timings from BIOS - then install and set up on the P67 and check them there, and compare - imaginge the P67 will have a higher tRFC and some of the other timings may be different than on the problem child. A lot of Z68s were left hanging, BIOS wise with high density and high quantity sets of DRAM and the mobo makers just didn't keep up with it once the Z77 mobos came out
