Hey all,
I have just installed more RAM into my new PC and its running incredibly slow. I've done research about it and I can't seem to figure it out. I bought this when i built the computer a month ago:
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200) Intel Z170 Platform / Intel X99 Platform Desktop Memory Model F4-2400C15D-8GVR
And another set that arrived today. Upon installing them the computer is now suuuuuper slow. I've tried switching out sets, and slots and when I run one set by itself it works super fast like normal but when i put both in there its back to a crawl. When I take out one stick alone out of the non-home slots and just run 12gigs its back to lightning fast. Is it something with the 4 stick set up in bios? I am running a xmp profile for the timing and settings of the card. CPUz says im running the DRAM frequency at 1199.5MHz and the SPD profile is:
Frequency:1200MHz
CAS# Latency 15.0
RAS# to CAS# 15
RAS# Precharge 15
tRAS: 35
tRC: 50
voltage 1.2
Even doing the auto profile has things running the same.
Motherboard is:
ASRock Z170 Pro4S LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
4 slots of memory supposedly supporting 64 gigs max.
Why is that 4th stick causing problems? I know 12 will get me by more than enough with what I'm doing....but its the principle of staring at that 4th stick on my shelf doing nothing....you know?
