ok so this is how it goes:
i was excited when i purchased my OCZ DDR2 1066 mhz 4gb pack!
i thought this is it! finally i will replace the old 4 gb of kingston DDRII 667.
till i replaced the kingston memory my Q6600 was OC to 3.0 ghz.
now when i put the new OCZ models inside, the highest FSB i can get is 285!!!!!
only 2.56 ghz !!
anything more than that the board restarts itself at the bios deafaults without overclocking.
i tried everything!! pumping up the voltage to my CPU and the memory!!!
CPU was even at 1.8!!! and the memory at +0.6 blinking red
help!!! am i doing something wrong? is this board a piece of ****?
exact setup:
gigabyte EP35C-DS3R
Intel Q6600 (with BIGtyphoon)
ASUS 8800 GTS 512 mb
2x Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 SATA (raid 0)
2x 2GB OCZ Reaper HPC Edition ddrII 1066mhz
Thermaltake ToughPower W0103 600W PFC (24pin)
