mehhh. So I go to do some rearranging and notice the outside ram module is hot, enough to sortof burn my finger. Didn't scald it or cause a blister, but definitely still feel the burn. Tried a set of GSkill 1.5V modules but the board wouldn't boot. The same Gskill that I got the board to boot originally. This isn't right. Left it runiing with a fan blowing on the board for now. Board is still not in a case., ambient temps are 72F.
I did go into bios and set the memory voltage to 1.5 from the default Auto. Edited by paulbot - 16 May 2016 at 8:59am |

Why would you need a UEFI booting Windows installation? If you think you do because the board has UEFI firmware, that is not true. The default settings in the UEFI for DIY boards are all set for legacy booting, and secure boot is not enabled. |

If a DDR3 DIMM is hot to the touch, something is wrong. Most DDR3 memory is rated for 1.5V. The DIMM was still hot after the PC was shut off and removed from power, when you were working on it? Set the DRAM voltage to Auto if you don't know what the voltage should be... and then find out what it should be. I have one of these boards too, came right up the first time. Supports UEFI booting too. |

Yes it was still hot, I had powered it down and felt the DIMM since it had happened the first time I tried to power up the board, with the same 2 DIMMs installed. They are 1.5V modules, and the outside slot DIMM gets hot with V set at auto and 1.5. I suppose I could try 1.35V, looks like they are not running at their rated speed on this board anyway.
