new pc question

It is always a good idea to test manually setting your ram at it's rated speeds with your cpu at it's default speed as well. Then test the ram. Generally manually setting ram timings/speed will fix a problem with fully populating a board with ram.

well, it took me days of testing and after reading the reviews at newegg I order the corsair dominator memory.
the corsair dominator memory worked the first time at the default settings.
the corsair dominator memory worked the first time at the XMP profile #1
all 12G of it.

the OCZ went south after a day or so and I couldn't get more that 6G to work at any setting.
the OCZ memory was just crap.

I love my new PC... I 10 boxed the spider wing last night using just one PC.
I'm so over geared for Naxx, I had done WG with my healer as DPS and forgot to change her back and did patchwerk and the spider wing without any healer.

i have used a set of ocz gold ram like exactly like the kit you linked in earlier posts. Honestly, you shouldn't have to set memory timings on new equiptment, especially if you aren't overclocking the pc or even the ram itself should you have the nerve. if both memory batches work in bank 0 at listed speed then you have a board issue then clearly to me. otherwise it would be a bad ram chip like you previously thought. Who like to place the cup game with ram chips... I know that you have already placed your order, but I got really excellant latencies and response times out of my ocz, but my cheaper version of cosair ram compared to your purchase didn't fare as well.
