    What size SLI bridge to take?

    8 GB (3.68 GB usable)

    oh, sorry. perhaps its one of the motherboard slots thats not working. try switching the detected RAM and "the not working RAM" and see if its that. experiment that using both factors of RAM slots and the 2 peices of RAM. maybe this will help?
