Hey peeps,
I've been piecing together a new system so I can retire my Q6600 setup, but I seem to be having huge issues with BSOD's.
The system:
Asus M5AA78L LE AM3+ motherboard
AMD Phenom 1055T (@stock) with Corsair H50 (push/pull config)
8GB G.Skill Ripjaw (red) DDR3 1600 RAM (2x matched kits of 2x 2GB Sticks)
Asus HD4870 1GB GDDR5 DK Edition GPU
600w temp PSU
Coolermaster HAF 912+ case
Issues:
1. RAM timings setup automatically, but voltage and frequency werent. So manually set to correct frequency, and voltage set manually to 1.5v - I have tried all on auto, and manual and it makes no difference. It does seem a little bit more stable now they're manually set, but it is still rebooting on me randomly.
2. System will crash during the extracting stage of W7 setup, and will reboot. It does it randomly. Sometimes it can complete setup, sometimes I have to remove all but one stick to make it work.
3. It is rebooting while in W7 randomly, though it occurs when I load the memory as far as I can tell.
I had these issues with a new build previously in March time, but suspected it was a faulty motherboard, and sent it for a refund. It was showing the same signs and issues then as well - identical in every respect, so I have ruled out the possibility of the new motherboard being faulty.
I have run memtest on all 4 sticks, and in sets of two, and individually, and they all complete several full passes without any failure running at the recommended frequency, timing and voltage.
Mini-dumps have been attached, as I am unable to read them still. Do they show are particular sign of memory being the issue?
G.Skill's RMA process is really long winded, and they are already threatening me with having to pay the full cost if they aren't faulty - in fairness Memtest is telling me they're OK though.
I'm wondering if its CPU related, but in my experience they either work, or they don't. Excluding RAM I'm not at a loss as to the issue, so some advice would be really appreciated.
Mindumps attached.
Cheers all,
Leeky
