I own a matched pair of 1GB DIMMs, G.Skill part# F2-8000PHU2-2GBHZ. Not long ago it went bad and I got an RMA to replace it. Now, after several weeks of running fine, I'm getting memory failures again.
I'm trying to figure out what could be going wrong. Has anyone heard of any bad batches from G.Skill?
I am not overclocking this memory... it's rated for 1000Mhz and I'm only running it at 850MHz (425MHz FSB). The timings I'm using are the ones supplied to me by G.Skill (4-4-4-5-4-42-7-11-8-13-AUTO). And the memory is listed as wanting 2.2-2.3 volts... I have my motherboard set to use 2.25V for the memory, which the MB utility shows as supplying 2.20V after droop it seems.
I can't imagine my motherboard is frying RAM... anyone seen that before? It's an Asus P5B Deluxe.
Any suggestions?
