My issue with Newegg got escalated to a manager and they are sending out replacement RAM overnight and covering the return shipping. I feel like with my order history and two bad kits in a row, this is something they ought to have offered me sooner. But, if the RAM they send me works, I will...
Well money isnt the only issue here. This whole mess started 10 days ago, that is a long time to be dealing with the same bullshit. I ordered the same part from them twice and it arrived broken both times. I expect them to solve the problem not ask me to jump through hoops. Do you *really*...
The first bad stick, I can completely see how that got past OCZ's testing. Afterall, it sure took me long enough to diagnose the problem. The second stick though? No way. If they tested it, they would have noticed it was bad right off. Unless it was good when they tested it...So how likely...
I dont agree.
I mean yeah maybe they are tested in pairs but I highly doubt they are really tested like an end user would test them or else I wouldnt have had two bad sticks out of four. What are the odds on that if they are actually tested? I know you are talking about Corsair and my...
Well I dont know about that 'tested together' stuff. There is no way in hell the second kit was tested together.
And no where in the OCZ warranty http://www.ocztechnology.com/support/warranty/ that I could find anway, does it say you have to send back both modules in a kit if one of them...
I dont think it matters which way you do it except that the stuff you need on a boot disk, afudos and the actual BIOS can not fit on a standard 1.44MB floppy. So if you are using floppys, you are gonna need two.
My problems are still not resolved. I sent both bad sticks of RAM back to...
Ok so my pseudo-cross-shipped RMA OCZ kit comes today from Newegg. 1 of the 2 sticks is bad, I didnt notice before I put it in but the heat spreader is warped/bent so its not even touching half of the chips.
The other one, so far, seems to be ok. OCZ might be having some quality control...
What is the high end of temps for Conroe and this board? 62C seems a tad high to me. I dont know about the mobo temp, which sensor does it get a reading from?
Anyone use Speed Fan? My temp3 setting on that board registers at 126C! lol wtf
BTW phil I contacted newegg again before seeing...
lol it seemed to go on forever from my end. Now I am trying to get either Newegg or OCZ to cross ship me some RAM, not having much luck. I wouldnt mind just sending in the one bad stick, I'd still have a single channel of 1g to work with. But they want them both. And since I have been AMD...
Yeah with the bad stick in, BSOD in <10 mins when running dual Prime95s. Twice in two different DIMM slots. Good stick in, no BSOD yet with Prime95x2 and F@H running as well, for over an hour.
On the advice of more than a few people I removed a stick of RAM and tested. BSODs with one stick, but not with the other. So despite passing memtest, it looks like it is a RAM issue.

Yeah pretty much. Basically set mem volt and vcore to auto (if I have them at 2.00 and 1.35 respectively then the machine is stable for longer but it will eventually crash) and then run prime95x2. It will either just reboot after about 15 mins or it will BSOD. When it BSODs it dumps the...
I have disabled most of the stuff in BIOS I am not using. 1394 controller, audio, LAN2, etc. all disabled. I have the Jmicron stuff disabled, I am only using the intel SATA/IDE controllers. I have legacy USB disabled and have 4 USB ports enabled. I also took off the wireless module. I have...
