Hello,
I've just upgraded to sabertoothx79 and intel i74820 from my old AMD system.
I have 3 sticks of 12gb RAM each but in the bios they get seen as 4 gb each. its the kingston KHX1600C9D3K3/12GX
I also have one stick of 8gb which is the KHX1600C9D3X2K2/8GX this also get recognized as 4gb max in the bios.
I tried them individually, on different channels, in couple, the 8gb alone and the 12gb alone etc. with every combination they always show the same amount regardless.
I know its not recommended to mix them but now i put them all in and i got 16gb but still, not sure if its because of compatibility or there's something wrong with the mobo?
I'm running everything at stock,I'm sure the ram works as I was using them all in my previous rig.
I'm sure I'm using the right channels as well, cpuid Says "Quad" in the channels# section of the memory so it is using all of them. I'm in 64bits window 7.
any info would be very appreciated!
