M4A77TD won't post with 2 memory sticks in Dual Channel??

ARGHH!!:mad:

I'm not sure who to blame, but I think this is Asus's Stuff up. The new board is doing exactly the SAME THING! And this board comes from Asus, and was guaranteed to work. It's doing the exact same thing again. It even has this MemOK! BS that just flashes a red light and does NOTHING... More so is that they send me a box with out the CD or Manual...

I'm begining to think Mussels was right :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: new CPU :ohwell:

Oh well this time I told em they had better send the driver to pick up the components and have a new set delivered to me ASAP. Waiting on their call back...

I'm thinking I should return the whole lot [mobo, chip, ram] and request they replace...

No GTA IV for 3days... I'm having withdrawal symptoms LOL

If you have to take it all back again i would ask them to try a diffrent CPU as the mobo is doing the same thing as before, You might have to explain that the memory controler is on the CPU andf its the ram that won't work right so can they test a diffrent CPU in ther mobo.
 
yup i'm going there now, they gonna try new cpu and new ram again :( i got a feeling its the CPU - and if it is they dnt have stock n nor does the supplier... so i suppose i'm gonna have 2 do a weekend without a pc... WTF :(
 
Hm...it really must be the processor then. There really is no other option. The memory controller on the chip is broke.
 
You got it right Heky and Mussels :( sadly it is the processor... they tried another 965 and it posted in dual channel :(

So they going to send me a new processor as soon as they have stock... then i'll be back in business...

Only upside here is that my board got upgraded for free - tee hee hee... oh well i'm keeping mum abt that :)

Great news, my CPU is the way :) will be posting temp reductions this evening! YAY!
 
Ok if anyone is still reading this, FRONTOSA LIED, they still haven't delivered my CPU claiming it's the delivery companies fault for not coming to me. Another day and still no PC :(
 
Dont you just hate it when that happens. Makes you rip someones heart out and eat it for dinner. hehe, lol
 
You hit the nail on the head Heky LOL - oh well I phoned them just now, (9am) and everything "seems" to be on the road... lets see!
 
I hope you do get it today.

if all goes well expect a post from me tonyt!
 
Good luck!
 
well all did go "well" lasnyt - pc is working gr8 - unfortunately i had 2 reinstall winwoes due to new mobo - argh... didn't get much chance to play with it - but i'm happy with it! looking forward to purchasing a new HSF and starting oc'ing... Ideas on a really good HSF for oc'ing? apparently the std 1 is crap?
 
Noctua NH-D14, the best air cooler money can get. The only step up is water-cooling. Have fun oc-ing.
 
Cooler Master Hyper N620 / Zalman CNPS9900A LED Blue... which is better/ value for money... the zalman is more expensive... but i like the design of the cooler master
