Hi everyone, I've been lurking these forums for a solution but haven't been able to solve the problem. Before anyone says it, I would really like to solve this without RMA anything.
Build:
- Intel core i5 6600k Skylake
- ASUS Maximus VIII Hero
- GSkill Trident Z 2x8 Gb 3000Mhz Dual Channel Kit
- OCZ Fatality 750W
- MSI GTX 560Ti
Everything is new except for the PSU and VGA.
I put everything together per manual instructions and the system posted once with 2 sticks but it frozed in Windows. Since then, I haven't been able to post with both sticks but only with one.
I've tried:
- Reseating the sticks in all combinations.
- Reducing CPU pressure a little bit
- Clearing CMOS
- MemOk button
- Updated to latest BIOS
- Pins are not bent or broken.
System only post with one stick, no matter which one. I've seen Q-codes 53 and 55 with 2 sitcks. When I put them in A2 and B2 like the manual says, I see Q-code 41 (which is not in the list) and CPU-led lit solid red. Any other combination results in Q-code 55.
Kit is on the motherboard's QVL list.
Thanks everyone in advanced.
