Might check in MSCONFIG, under the BOOT, ADVANCED options to ensure that it's not limiting the DRAM...Also might try raising the CPU/NB voltage to about 1.2 in case MC is undervolted

yes the memory ran perfectly until i clean installed windows about a month back, its corsair xms3 1333mhz ddr3 dual-channel memory, i have it in the pc currently where i cannot access it, mobo is gigabyte 970a-ud3 rev1.1(may be 1.0) and cpu is, as in parent post, AMD fx-6100 am3+ cpu. also, i ran memteston if with 4 passes with no errors.
