    Morning....BSOD on cold boot.

    I don't know what to do.

    Can anyone read the 2 posts before this post and give me any advice?

    thanks

    Some more info from my local forums:

    I have the same board, rev 2.0, and noticed a bit of weirdness with my setup. However I am running the Geil 1600 @ 1333 and everything works fine.

    After reading through the manual, the board doesn't actually support 1600 ram:
    from page 10:

    "Support for DDR3 2200/1333/1060/800 MHz memory modules." Try running the ram at a slower speed and see if:
    a) the ram is recognised
    b) the OS stops BSD'ing

    Also this board is very picky about the RAM it likes. I have a mate who has built 2 of these machine and has had a lot of trouble with the RAM modules.


    I thought maybe that's what the new bios's were doing....making the board support 1600....?

    The fact that you got errors in Memtest tells me something is not right. Run Memtest again from a cold boot, preferably when your computer has been off for a while.

    But with what values in bios?

    Look at this info....my cpu doesn't even support 1600 ram

    GA-X58A-UD3R (rev. 1.0) 1600 MHz support? - Gigabyte - Motherboards-Memory

    When I tested my ram at optimised in fc2....I think the ram speed was 1333....I had no errors.

    Maybe my ram just is incapable of running stably at 1600

    Furthermore....my cpu only supports up to 1066

    I am not a hardware expert; but I do know that you have to go with what your motherboard supports unless you are a true hardware expert and do work arounds.

    Well look I'm gonna just try this before I do anymore memory testing.

    I'm gonna run the values in bios at optimised so that it hits 1333 or 1066 ram speed. When I have had those bios values I have had no errors in memtest. When the values were different...1600 ram speed...the memtest reported errors.

    I think it might be best to set it how it should be set in bios...wait for another cold boot and hope it works.

    Looking at the cpu-z pic tells me the ram is OC'ed.
    The QPI MHz and the NB MHZ are drastically different.
    You have 1600 MHz ram, it runs at 1600MHz not 1333 or 1066.
    The relationship between the ram multiplier and cpu multiplier is linked. Setting things to auto may not work.
    You need to manually adjust cpu until you get the spec'ed MHz and input the spec'ed voltage. Notice the changes in ram MHz whilest you adjust. You also have to get the ram at its required MHz, initial timings and voltage.

    Please note my cpu-z. My system is OC'ed a lot. Because of OC my ram timings are on auto. Its 1333MHz ram at 1472MHz.
    Put ram at standard in dram selections
    disable ciest, green lan
    note how I got the QPI and NB MHz similar.

    It would also appear that the cpu is underclocked as well? You have a 2.8 GHz and cpu-z states its at 1.5GHz?????????????????????????????????????????

    Mine is a 2.66GHz pushed to 3.8GHz compare the relationships.
