Asrock Z77 Extreme4 Ram Slots Drivers
Hello Everyone,
Guess I'll start with...I've purchased the Z77 Extreme4 on 11/28/2013 and 4 G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series (F3-17000CL9D) along with various other components.
Recently, I've upgraded my GPU to the EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB HYBRID up from the GeForce GTX 660 2GB. Before the install, I was registering 16GBytes of the G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series, now my Geforce Experience and System are only showing 8GBytes of installed memory.
I've gone into my Bios and noticed it shows there as well 'Total Memory 8192MB'. Also that DDR3_A1 and B1 show ':NONE'. In 'System Browser' it shows all 4 sticks registered though. Also in CPUID, it shows 16GBytes registered.
All actions taken thus far...
- Before opening my tower and handling the memory sticks, I utilized Windows' built-in memory diagnostic tool to check my RAM ?嚙練dsched.exe?? No issues detected.
- Removed all ram sticks and inserted, one at a time, each mem stick into each slot on the mobo, beginning with slot 1 and moving over to the adjacent slot with each power cycle. I've done this with each stick individually. No boot errors with any stick in any slot.
My UEFI Version is P2.90
My current rig setup... If you don't mind me copying and pasting.
- ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
- G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 (PC3 17000)
- EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB HYBRID
- Seagate Desktop HDD ST1000DM003 1TB 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5' Internal Hard Drive
- SAMSUNG 840 EVO MZ-7TE120BW 2.5' 120GB SATA III TLC Internal Solid State Drive
- Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge Quad-Core 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W BX80637I53570K Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000
- Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - CPU Cooler with 120 mm PWM Fan
- CORSAIR HX Series HX750 750W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply
- Windows 10 Home 64-bit
No over-clocking or alternate tuning have been made on this system. Simple plug and play.
I'd like to thank everyone for stopping by to read my ramblings regarding my issue. Any input would be appreciated. If needing any further details, don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you,
...Jason
