I'm having a very strange problem that is driving me crazy. I recently upgraded my memory to 16gb of corsair vengeance DDR3. I have an ASUS P6T Deluxe running a intel core i7.
So, when I have a lot of Chrome tabs open (50+) and am using a lot of memory (Now I know it's silly to have this many tabs open, but it's just how I work). Closing older tabs freezes the computer for a couple minutes. The hard drive seems to go nuts. Forget about closing a whole bank of tabs. I have to restart the computer. It seems that once I start using more than 9gb of ram or so, this happens.
I've tried turning down the clock speed of the ram and getting completely new ram. Neither worked.
I'm thinking the P6T doesn't handle using this much ram very well. I never had this problem when I only had 6gb of ram. Any ideas?
