I have a weird issue here for which I need help. I have just purchased a system. The specs are as follows:
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T BE
Asus M4A89GTD PRO/USB3
Sapphire Radeon HD 6870
Corsiar CMX4GX3M2A1600C9 ( 8gb ) [2 4gb kits]
Corsair TX650W
WD Caviar Green 1 TB
Cooler Master 430 elite Black
The thing is, is my RAM supported by the mobo/cpu? I ask this coz even though its there in the QVL of the mobo, I'm using 2 pairs of it (as opposed to only 1 as per the QVL). And also I'm running the ram sticks in the following arrangement: 1st pair of the sticks: A1|B1 and the next pair in A2|B2. I have been told that this is not the correct way to run it. Instead I have been told to run it like this: 1st Pair: A1|A2 2nd pair: B1|B2. But when I run like this my system refuses to boot. So any headers on that? I have tested the sticks with memtest86 for 7-8 hours and prime 95 for 9 hours and no errors. I even tested the sticks individually for around 2 hours each. And no errors there as well. The system as such is running ok with no issues. But its the long run that I'm worried about. Can you help me on this?
