Hello,
I got some new memory today from my friend at work and after installing and checking on windows I only have 8GB showing. My setup is as follows:
RAM: 2 x F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR - 1866mhz ddr3 4GBx2 sticks
Motherboard: Gigabyte ga z77m-d3h
Processor: Intel core i5 3470
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64bit
I have tested each stick individually and on bios for both it only reads 4GB out of the total 8GB. I also tested to make sure that both ram sticks were in the matching slots, both 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 which didn't change anything. Furthermore the maximum memory box is unticked in msconfig, so that should allow it to read the maximum amount of memory available. I increased the DRAM voltage as per another thread to 1.56 but that did not changed what bios was showing.
What do I need to check specific to my setup and other hardware to get all 16GB of the ram to read at 1866mhz? Is there a setting I need to unlock for it to read on my motherboard or do I have to increase the voltage and other settings?
Appreciate any assistance!
