Hello all, I'll get straight to the point: My bios only registers 4 of my 6gb with ram. I have made sure they're seated in the correct places, I've also switched them around and tried all combinations possible to make sure it's not a faulty stick. The funny thing is, Windows is able to notice that I have 6GBs of ram, but there it says only 4 are usable.
I'm no expert at this, so there might have been something obvious that I've missed. If further info is needed, then please ask, I'll answer as fast as I can.
I'm running on the latest BIOS available at stock clock.
CPU-Z is reporting 6GB ram installed.
These are my specs:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD3R
Processor : Intel Core i7 920
Memory: Corsair CMX6GX3M3A1333C9 1333 (Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1333MHz 6GB CL9 Kit w/3x 2GB XMS3 modules, CL9-9-9-24)
Video Card: Gainward Geforce GTX 275
OS: Windows 7 X64
Memtest 86+ shows no errors, also looked for a bent pin in the CPU socket, but none available.
I found out this, however; DXDiag shows my Video card is eating up 2.7GB ram, this doesn't show in CPU-Z or the software following the Gigabyte mobo (Easy Tune 6)
Here's some screenshots of my DXDiag:
What the dick is going on here?
