I have so many problems with this motherboard.

First of all when I moved all my old working hardware to this motherboard it didn?™t boot. While I was on another channel on my tv the notification that the pc (in the hdmi slot I?™m using was available) then when I went to the channel it kept saying no signal. I managed to fix that somehow by plugging out 3 of my 4 dimms and only using one. After reading a million forums and nearly giving up.

Ok cool jumped that hurdle. Then I proceeded to try use the other rams in the other dimm slots. My next problem was that they somehow didn?™t let me boot with 4 indentical model, size and speed rams. It let me use 1 or 2, booted with 3 inside but wouldn?™t boot or showed no signal on my tv. So I had to find the fix for that. I tried changing the settings in bios and I tried installing the latest bios via windows. I don?™t know which one did the job but it eventually allowed me to use 3 rams and then 4 after I tested them one by one.

I was kinda happy that problem was solved but then noticed that when I had 4 dimms working (4 x 4gb ram) I was only getting 12GB ram out of 16GB. The pc worked fine and it wasn?™t the end of the world but I wanted my full 16GB. I tested and played some Grand Theft Aito and although it did run ok I noticed that there was some occasional frame drops. So I deciided that maybe I should reset my Pc and start from fresh especially after not finding anyway to change it to let me use my full 16gb ram.

After wasting my time resetting the pc and then
