Current Specs:
AMD FX-8350 Eight Cores @ 4.0 GHz
Nvidia GTX 970 4GB
M5A99FX PRO R2.0 Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance 8x4 @ 1600 MHz
WD Black Caviar 1TB
Samsung 120GB SSD
The problem I am having is a weird one that I've never seen before. Even though I have a total of 32GB of RAM installed, my computer will only use half of it at 16GB. I had this problem previously when I had 16GB of RAM installed and it would only use 8GB. My computer didn't start doing this until after I upgraded my graphics card from a 760 to a 970. Furthermore, my computer will sometimes use all 32GB of RAM, but when it does that, my PC will freeze up and crash without bringing up a blue screen, no matter what I am doing, whether I am playing a game or doing nothing. The only thing that fixes this is constantly restarting my PC after crashing until it goes back to using only half of my RAM again. I know this is not a problem with the OS since my computer would freeze even while I was doing a fresh install of Windows after getting an SSD. Any help with this problem will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
