So where shall I start..
I built my system with 4Gb's (2Gb Stick + 2Gb Stick) of Memory.
Then I decided to get another 4Gb's of Memory for the since - as a programmer extra memory can't harm me.
In result I had (2Gb + 2Gb + 4Gb Stciks) of memory.
Here are they:
2x 2Gb Memory Sticks - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104206
One 4Gb Memory Stick - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004JO10RU/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
My MotherBoard - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128565
They are basically identical! On boot it would say something like "Switch your ram sticks around" or something like that (I can't remember).
It would boot up, but only 4Gb of memory would be "usable".
I basically took out one of the 2Gb Memory sticks and left myself 6Gb of ram in total.
Note: Yes I do have a 64 bit Windows.
I tried using different ram sockets and place the ram sticks in all possible patterns. Nothing solved the issue.
I would still get 4Gb's of memory usable if I had 8 installed.

Does anyone know how to solve this issue?
