Ok guys Ive been pulling my hair out on this one.
CPU - i3 5th gen
OS - Win 7 x64
Right I have 2 different matched pairs of ram. Ignore 1 set for the purpose of this as the problems occur with both.
Using the 2x 4GB sticks.
In Dual channel mode the bios sees all 8GB
CPUz sees all 8GB and states dual channel mode
Win reports 4GB installed and 3.18 usable.
In single channel mode bios sees all 8GB
CPUz says 8GB in single mode.
Win reports 8GB and 3.18 usable
All sticks work ok in any slot.
Ive reseated the CPU. (cant see any problems with the pins)
Ive done the msconfig thing.
Ive played with every bios setting related (FOXCONN Q57m on the latest BIOS i can find anywhere)
Ive boosted the voltage 50mv
nothing has any affect.
Anyone got any ideas?
