I just bought another set of G. SKILL Ripjaws DDR3 12800 (1600) RAM sticks 2x4GB (for a total of 16 Gb). Along with my other RAM the have identical CAS Latency and voltage. The only difference when they were bought. Also the RAM is being ran on a Z68 chipset gigabyte motherboard with Dual Channel memory so I decided to put the ram to corresponding color coded memory controllers, so the RAM bought in 2011 is in channel 1 and 3 and the new one is in channel 2 and 4.
Am I doing something wrong?
Any other ideas?
Some background info:
The computer seems to freeze randomly and does not proceed from this state. If it helps I was running world of warcraft and a couple videos on a two monitor set up when it happened.
Furthermore, prior to this I was getting all sorts of blue screens which seems to have stopped altogether after specifying the new channels for each coupled RAM sticks.
(All my drivers are up to date also I went one by one in the device manager and did this manually, because of BSOD issues, the reports for errors were all over the place, a different error with every BSOD.)
Any help?
Thank y'all in advance
