did you set your memory in the bios to its xmp ?? will it do this when your using default bios settings? are you trying to set some overclock on them? be sure the memory is fully seated in there correct slot? is the memory on the boards compatibly list? did you check for bent pins in the cpu socket?

I will assume that you did not buy them as a kit? this may be part of the issue the 2 even being the same may not match up as would 2 matched sticks in a 2 stick kit they are binned at the factory and tested to work together where a single stick did not and was sold that way--- so how well does it work with just one stick??

even with one of them at a time i can still only get 1b and 2b to work.

ya that may be true if your board has two slots that works single sided the other two may not..

What are you using for a cooler?

Make sure any cooler you are using isn't tightened to much because it can flex the board and cause ram slot issues.

using a coolermaster seidon 120mm the issue today happend after i turned the radiator another way in hope for better cooling, then after and hour or so i bsod and the pc rebootet and gave me the error.
i then turned the radior back to the place it was before and removed and reset the ram and it worked again..
i just have no idea what causes it and it anoys the hell out of me and actually scares me quiet a bit

Sometimes just a slight board flex throws the slots off.

would that indicate that the board is crap?, and how can turning the radiator a bit flex the board?

It's strange , but I've seen this several times , just a different position and bam the slots work.

Doesn't mean the board is crap , actually I own that board is a great one.

ok so now we need to check cpu temps but still all the slots should work as normal unless the memory controller got too hot and went bad [hope not]

I never seen that before as blackbird said but I guess any thing is possible ... just some silly little quirk can make your day bad ... but we covered a few things here and if it keeps on and you cant resolve don't let your rma run out .... hope it all stays running well for you.....

did you retry the sticks in all 4 slots to see if the ones that seemed dead were now working??

so you got one stick in a1 and one in b1 or a2 and b2 [the slot clostest to the cpu is a1 next is a2 next is b1 and the farthest one from the cpu is b2] so for duel side you need a stick in a1 and b1 --- or a2 and b2
