Hey. Just Wondering If Anyone Can Help Me, My G.Skil Ram I Ordered About 3 Weeks Ago Is Having Trouble, Im Not Sure What Is Wrong, I Installed It Into A P8P67 B3 Board With An i5 2500K, And the Ram is running At 1.5v At 1600Mhz as The Bios Says, But The System a lot of The Time Doesnt Boot, Or Restarts About 8 Times Before Starting Properly, But If I Take A Stick Out Then It Boots First Time, Help! :confused:

Did you use the XMP setting option in BIOS?

I've had problems with my new G.Skill ram, albeit a totally different product.

I had to manually increase the voltage in the bios to get the system stable. In Windows, Hardware Monitor now reports that the ram is running the correct voltage NOT overvolting.

So it seems my motherboard wasn't supplying enough voltage...and hopefully I'm not frying my ram :-)

Might be worth running HW monitor to see the ram voltage?

I Think In The Bios It Shows Its Running At 1.50V,

I'll Have A Look At The HW monitor WHen I get Home,
