What ever combination of ram you have installed lets take a look at Resource Monitor and see what Windows 7 sees ram to be. My understanding is Windows 7 get these reading from the motherboard.

Well Windows 7 is seeing a little over 12 gigs. Your hardware is low but that depends on what hardware you have. If you can RMA the ram go for it. Don't forget matched ram because they are test together to make sure they work nicely with each other.
NOTE! I do not like ImageShack because of all the extras is download. Some sort of screaming music now I have to run scans for infections.

i was trying to avoid rma'ing but i guess thats the only solution? i just think it's weird that i only get memtest errors when they're in dual channel but individually no errors..... wouldnt that mean its more of a motherboard issue?
It's a toss up. The motherboard is telling Windows 7 the correct information. I'm thinking the motherboard just doesn't really know what to do with that ram and the way the settings are. Things like this are more a trial and error method.
