ok well i've got myself in a mess...
ive got a
biostar h18s2 that i may RMA,
730t corsair case
a GTX 660,
i5 4460,
xfx 750w,
2 x 4Gb ddr3 patriot viper low profile RAM.
just built this pc today and i couldn't boot it with both of the RAM sticks in the mobo. only the furthest slot(only two slots) from the cpu will work. i can put either RAM stick in B1 and ill boot up just fine, but neither of them work in A1 (meaning blank screen and it continuously restarts itself$ ive updated all my drivers including my bios which is now a 2014 version. i reseated the ram numerous times and ive reseated the gfx card and the processor as well... so im stuck with 4 gigs of RAM. Anyways after installing win 7 x64 and some other programs like process explorer, and google chrome, i experience 1-10 minute lock ups.. ESPECIALLY with google chrome. i cant play the game archeage like i could on my 10 year old pc -.- there are horizontal invisible lines during gaming and it looks terrible(v-sync helps but doesnt eliminate).
im idling at 45% RAM usage(this is too high considering i installed win 7 a few hours ago). im wondering if this could all just be a faulty motherboard. maybe bad RAM? its so slow i hooked my 10 yr old pc back up just to play the game. my temps are fine too, i just hope its something simple like the mobo :/ anyone have knowledge of a train-wreck like this!?
