Hi all.

Yesterday I finished a new build for a friend. The process was flawless, until we booted for the first time. When I entered the BIOS for the first time, only 32GB out of 64 were recognised. Also, on some boots the board would show the bF code that dissapeared after a CMOS clear.

Since then, we have managed the system to recognice 7 RAM slots by increasing System Agent voltage and RAM voltages. Windows only shows 32GB but on HWINFO 56GB are detected. Also the random bF codes have vanished with the voltage increase.

We have tested every memory on every slot on the motherboard, and not a single one of the different configs gave problems. So it's not a hardware problem, I suppose.

Any sugestions? Also, which is the maximum safe System Agent voltage for us to test? It's my first Haswell-E build and I'm kind of lost.

The list of components are:

Asus Rampage V Extreme USB 3.1
Intel Core i7 5960x
G.Skills Trident Z DDR4 3000 CL14 8x8GB
Gigabyte GeForce TITAN X Xtreme Gaming
SSD Samsung 850 EVO 250GB
HDD Seagate Barracuda 3TB
NZXT Kraken x61
Corsair RM1000 Power Supply
