ok had issues with 16gb in my system, works fine on 8gb. i did memtest all sticks before but now im getting errors.




left it running for 4 hours, the 1st pair passed all the tests

oddly this errored pair work fine on their own, its just when i have 16gb ?
 
Corsair 650D Case
Corsair TX 650w V2 PSU
Asrock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 Intel Z68
Intel 2600k i7 @ 4.4ghz
Corsair H60 CPU Cooler
Corsair XMS3 16GB DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz ( 4 x 4GB)
Crucial RealSSD M4 128GB
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 670 Windforce 3X 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express
2 x 1TB Weston Digital

Windows 7 Pro - 64 Bit

yeah the first pair pass, the second pair give me red bits on the screen shot above.

im running on what the memory states i should

9-9-9-24

however even if up take off my overclock, run the memory on auto, i bluescreen with 16gb. but either 8gb work :(
 
surely this is my issue?

the first 2 sticks give me nice blue error free. the two pictured above give me the red bits :D

when i add all 4 sticks i get bluescreens and crashes.

RMA?
 
no sorry, i get that error when i test pair two. i cant even boot with 16gb without instant bluescreen

im a bit sleepy and have not explained myself well.

set 1 is error free - pc runs fine
set 2 gives the above screenshot and red errors - not tested long enough to know if windows is stable

set 1 & 2, instant bluescreen or windows errors
 
haha its ok,well thats easy you need to rma that one 8gb kit of ram for another set,keep the good kit that passes

the one kit is faulty if its not passing memtest and its crashing

yeah i just started a thread in ocuk support, i purchased in Jan 2012. not sure if ocuk would deal with it or its corsair after this amount of time.
