Thought I'd test the GTX 260 in my 5820k system as it was nearest, and noticed it had HT off from something earlier. No problem, went in bios to turn it back on, when I noticed only 3 channels were detected. Weird. In short, reset to basic speeds, tried reseating, and swapping modules around. One of the ram slots seems to be not operational currently. Took off waterblock, jiggled CPU a bit, didn't make any difference. Guess I'll have to pull the mobo out to see if there's anything else going on.
Oh, this was working fine until I did a case transplant recently. This is annoying... I also intend to use this system for a 3x crossfire run at some point, and I can't do it in case anyway as there's not enough room for the 3rd card. So I would have had to extract it anyway. Still annoying. I'll leave that for later, for now testing the '260 in another system which does seem to be working normally.
