I noticed last night that my computer is only seeing 3GB of the 4GB's of ram I have installed. (in BIOS and OS) I then set everything back to stock settings and started pulling and switching chips.
I narrowed it down to one stick and eliminated the mobo slots as a culprit.
when I put the bad stick back in, bios try's to put the speed at 667MHz insted of 800mhz like it would with the other three, but doesn't show that there is another gb of ram.
My question is do you guys think "the oven trick" is somthing worth trying with this dead stick? these sticks are Corsair CM2X1024-6400C4's ver5.3.
I did run them at a healthy overclock of 1000mhz [email protected] with a huge fan on them though.
Maybe just time for a new set of chips for christmas hehehe
