I have just bought the following based on the threads I have been reading:
1 x Intel Core i5-4670K 3.40GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail
1 x Sapphire HD 7850 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
1 x Gigabyte Z87M-D3H Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 Micro ATX Motherboard
1 x Corsair Obsidian 350D Windowed Micro ATX Case - Black
1 x TeamGroup Xtreem LV 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-19200C10 2400MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit (TXD38G2400HC10QDC01)
1 x Corsair Hydro H100 Extreme Performance Liquid CPU Cooler *Manufacturer Refurbished Unit - 90 Day Guarantee
I already have a SanDisk Extreme 120Gb SSD and 2 x 160 Seagate drives, as well as 700 Watt iCute PSU (which has been working well in another machine).
On building and starting machine,it keeps starting up then after 3-4 seconds it restarts repeatedly. The BIOS was left untouched.
I removed the video card but it kept on happening so I then removed 1 stick of memory and it worked perfectly. I switched memory sticks and it still worked, but when I put the second stick in it kept rebooting again, never reaching the BIOS splashscreen.
I took out 1 stick and went in to BIOS and made the following changes to settings for memory chip (in line with the manufacturers recommendations):
DRAM voltage (Ch A/B) set to 1.64 volts (recommended 1.65 but only other option is 1.66)
DRAM Timing Selectable change to Quick from Auto
Channel A Timing Settings changed to:
CAS Latency 10
tRCD 12
tRP 12
tRAS 31
I then restarted it and it ran perfectly with 1 memory stick.
When I put in the second stick it began rebooting again over and over.
Can anyone advise me on what I am doing wrong ( all leads are tight, no shortcircuits)?
Memory stick is in slot 1 second stick is added to slot 2.
