I have had my computer running for some time with only 2 memory cards. This is my setup.
Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 with an AMD 8350
Memory is G.Skill F3-17000CL9-4GBSR
I did not have this overclocked. I simply turned on the memory XPS settings and that is all.
I was very happy to see that the memory ran at 2133 MHz at 9-11-10.
I ran my PC like this for some time and no I have decided to get two more memory cards.
After I put in the two additional memory cards I was unable to get the same speed on the memory. Now it will not go higher then 1333. This is disappointing.
I pulled the memory out and moved it around to see if one of the cards was bad. All of the memory cards will clock to 2133 with no problems. I eventually found that it was slot 3 and 4 on the motherboard. Slots 3 and 4 on the MB will not run the cards at anything higher then 1333.
Has anyone seen this before? Is there anything I can do? Do you think this is an RMA problem?
