So I have the UD3P with two 1gig sticks of the above mentioned ram running perfectly when only 2 sticks are installed. It runs great at the 1066 speed when they are installed in slots 1&3, 1&2, 2&4 with the latest bios installed.
When I try to install the other two sticks for a total of 4gb it will not post. With only 2 sticks installed, I've made the following changes to the bios:
tRFC:85
DRAM Voltage: 2.1
MCH Core: 1.4
MCH/DRAM Reference: 1.0
CAS Latency Time: 5
tRCD: 5
tRP: 5
tRAS: 15
Performance Enhance: Standard
Everything else is at optimum auto/stock settings.
It will continue to boot perfectly with these settings with only two sticks installed. I can switch which sticks are in which spots and it still works. I've also booted with just one stick to test each stick individually and windows boots. Also, these four sticks worked perfectly in my old evga 750i ftw board.
But when I try to install the other two it won't post or anything. It powers up, stays on for about a minute, then reboots and stays on indefinitely, or at least longer than five minutes. I do a hard shut down, take out two sticks, boot into the bios and it gives me the "The system has experienced boot failures because of overclocking...." warning message in mb tweeker.
Any ideas? Thanks for your help.
System specs are as follows:
xfx 8800gt
intel e8400
gigabyte ep45-ud3p
the ram listed in here
ocz agility 60gb ssd
some other add on cards
