Hey all!
So, I've been encountering a weird problem with X8DTi-F. I had 64GB DDR3 ECC REG installed, and for a long time it didn't read but only 56GB's of it. It had some bent pins so I'd imagine it was because of it. At some point I cleaned the RAM slots and then it read all of them. I moved the motherboard to a new case, and I can't remember did I take out the RAM-sticks or no, but now it reads only 48GBS (in some instances 32GB and 16GB), and I am at a loss what would be the problem. I went and straightened out the pins, there was even one pin which was so bent that it didn't even have contact to the CPU, and still no effect. I read somewhere that is possible that the case and cause short circuits, is there any credence to that? All of the RAM-sticks are Samsung M393B1K70CH0-CH9. Bios is of revision 2.1, I couldn't update to 2.2 due to the BIOS-flashing software not being compatible with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
Any tips would be helpful. Thank you!
