I got my new computer yesterday and assembled it, but it won't boot with 3 DIMMs. It will boot fine with 1 DIMM, but not with 2 DIMMs(dual channel doesn't work with i7 920) or 3 DIMMS. I have a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 motherboard and Corsair Dominator DDR-1600 6Gb 7-7-7-20 Triple Channel memory. Please help!
