x99 Taichi double post and memory problems

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

   I've just bought the x99 Taichi (with i7-6800K) and a memory kit that was not on the approved memory list on Taichi's support page (Corsair CMK32GX4M4A2400C14). The motherboard would always boot twice (double post, it booted, stopped and then rebooted by itself).

After reading about it and trying countless manual settings in UEFI, I checked the officially supported memory list and I had to buy another RAM kit that was listed as compatible: Corsair CMK32GX4M4A2400C16.

Unfortunately, the problems are still happening. The system always boots twice, sometimes I get the message that there was a problem with my settings and that UEFi has been reset, the memory always goes back to 2133 after I set it thru XMP at 2400... and so on.

One more thing: the problems still happen with just 1 stick of RAM. Or 2 sticks of RAM. Or all 4 sticks. I've tried everything.

Do you guys have ANY idea what the problem could be? The motherboard came with the latest version of UEFI, so I don't have the option to update it.
