Getting memory errors

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm using up all 6 slots but have been seeing memory errors and I'm not sure why this is. It obviously has the triple channels x 2. So I have in the first set of channel (white) the 4GBx3. In the 2nd channel set I have the 2GBx3. As long as I don't use both of them there are no errors. As soon as I add even one stick of ram to the first slot in the 2nd set of channels I see errors. If I put the 2GBx3 in first set of channels I get no errors. Everything I read points to this being ok and should work together. 

They are all DDR3 1333 so I don't see why they shouldn't work. Here is more details on them:

	We need specs to be able to help you, all we know for sure from your post is that the board has triple channel and you are using mismatched memory capacities in it (not good). Please give us your full system specs.
