  • Send the RAM back under DSR, unless it is too late.
    I have been trying to get them to send me a returns number for two weeks now.
    I got the stuff three weeks ago and have been in communication with them since a couple of day after that.
    A week ago yesterday, I was told they "would see what they could do" about exchanging it.
    After leaving messagages all week, they have not replied.

    Well unless during the last two weeks or so you've actually notified them that you are cancelling the order and you're returning the order (you don't need to wait for any RMA) then you're too late to use the DSRs.

    Well, they outwitted you. Do you have any evidence you tried to use DSR? Once they ducked giving you a RMA number, you should have written, stating you were rejecting the goods under DSR and that you had been refused a RMA.

    A copy of that letter would make the chargeback easier, because the card company would have evidence that the retailer was mucking you about.

    Yes
    In all combinations.
    The best it can do is take two sticks, sometimes !!!

    If it works sometimes, is that maybe a fault with the MB or RAM? If it was just compatibility, it wouldn't work at all, not even sometimes.

    Try them in slots 1 and 2.

    Are you getting any beeping from the speaker connected to the mobo.

    Think you'll find the problem is the memory you bought is 1.65 Volt, the manual for your mobo states that you need 1.5 volt.

    Overclockers don't have the best rep unfortunately.
