alright so i got a shiny new p6x58-d and an i7 950 along with 6gb of G-skill ddr3 ram....
unfortunately bios and windows 64 bit only displayed it as 4gb...
thinking it was a memory issue i bought another 6gb g skill kit and put that in...
same result.
So, kinda irritated i put in both sets and I got a grand total of 8gb instead of 12...
i've updated my mobo bios...attempted reseating the heatsink (heard that helps lol) and have run memtest+ on all the ram.. (i also reinstalled windows just in case)
nothing seems to help....
anything I can do short of RMA? I really don't want to take my rig apart
cheers
