Hey guys, I noticed that hen I switched motherboards, it is recognizing two of my 1600mhz RAM sticks as 1333mhz. I am currently at school and will confirm that the stickers on the RAM sticks says 1600mhz when I am at home. Anyway, twice now my computer has randomly shut off on its own. I do not believe this should be a power supply issue since 750 watts should be more than enough and all of my power supply connections are all secure. My CPU is not overclocked and my GPUs are overclocked but I have ran Heaven and Firestrike without seeing any artifacts at all. With XMP they are running at 1600mhz 9-9-9-24. I could see this being a problem if the sticks are 1333mhz, since they'd be overclocked and the timings are lowered. I might see about disabling XMP and seeing if this ever happens again. (Once it happened when I was playing CSGO and another time when I was leaving it on the desktop while I got something to eat. So this seems like something hard to recreate.)
