First of all heres my computer specsMotherboard: GA-M61SME-S2 (Supports memory up to 1.8v)CPU: AMD 6000+ x2Memory: OCZ PC2 6400 800mhz Gold Edition XTC 2X1gb (RATED 1.8V). Currently only 1 stick installed in slot 2Graphics card: XFX GeForce 9800 GTPower supply: 650 wattOK so Heres the problem i bought the ram described in my specs above the other day and when i put both sticks of ram in computer will not boot at all, Butwill boot with 1 stick of ram in slot 2. Wont boot with 1 stick of ram in slot 1.
So i updated to the latest F9 bios still no luck so i kept trying to boot it up with 1 stick in slot 1 and finally it booted in slot 1 so i added the other stick in slot 2 and Yep offcourse it didnt boot. But now slot 1 and slot 2 are working everytime in singlechannel but dualchannel dosent seem to be working.Ive rang around computer techs but they said ive done everything possible that they could of done. So anyways ive orderd a new XFX 8300a Motherboard but still pisses me of that dual channel dont work beacause i will give this motherboard to my brotherAny Help would be great thanks. I am not sure but i do have a 1 stick of 1gb hynix (667mhz) ram that came with the motherboard and just to see what happened i mixed the OCZ ram (800mhz) with the HYNIX ram and it booted but only said i had 1gb of memory at the speed-(667mhz) So it picked the Hynix memory over the OCZ BUT the Hynix was in slot 2. It showed up in the bios that booth slots were in use its weird because they normally dont boot with different types of ram inserted its like the ram is to good for this motherboard it likes the cheaper ram ill borrow some ram of a mate thats on the QVL and go from therethanks for the reply.

This guide covers UEFI tuning for ASUS Z77 motherboards, including P8Z77 series, Sabertooth Z77 and Republic of Gamers Maximus V series. For the most part, the default auto settings for each parameter should suffice – we’ve selected optimum parameters for some of the more complex settings in order to allow users to achieve a successful overclock without too much fuss. If you are curious as to what some of settings do, or how/when they should be used, then you will find this guide of some use.All of the overclocking related action takes place within the AI Tweaker Menu (UEFI Advanced Mode)Ai Overclock Tuner:Options are Auto, Manual and X.M.P.Auto: This is the default setting, and needs to be changed to Manual if you wish to change BCLK (BCLK is the base reference frequency from which processor and other system bus frequencies are derived). X.M.P:Extreme memory profile, use this option if you have Sandy Bridge/Ivy Bridge qualified XMP memory.X.M.P. Profiles contain pre-sets for system buses and in some cases voltages. If the specified speed of the DIMMs is greater than the supported memory frequency of the platform, a platform specific X.M.P.
Profile option becomes mandatory because processor core and memory controller voltage requirements vary from architecture to architecture.High-speed enthusiast memory kits manufactured before the inception of the Sandybridge/Ivy Bridge platforms may not contain the necessary/adequate voltage offset settings for the system to be completely stable. In such instances, manual adjustments of memory controller voltage and memory timings may be necessary.It is also wise to purchase a single memory kit rated at the density and timings you wish to run rather than combining multiple kits to make up that density.
The XMP profile and memory module SPD is configured by the memory vendor for a single kit only and does not take into account timing and voltage offsets that may be required for two or more kits to operate in tandem. One of the reasons that high frequency high density kits are more expensive than their lower density counterparts (even when the operating frequency and IC used is the same) is because the binning process at higher densities is more stringent – only a few ICs make the grade. Making a wise investment here will save frustration later on.A final note on memory purchasing; Sandybridge processors are binned to run DDR3-1333 speeds at stock voltages (CAS 9). Higher operating frequencies are defined as overclocked, so voltage requirements and overall stability will vary from CPU to CPU. The same rule applies to Ivy Bridge processors, although the margin has been extended to DDR3-1600 at stock voltages for these CPUs.
As such, unconditional stability at higher operating frequencies cannot be guaranteed and will vary between processor samples. BCLK Frequency:This function becomes available if X.M.P or Ai Overclock Tuner “Manual” are selected. The base BCLK frequency is 100MHz.
The CPU core frequency is derived via multiplication with the Turbo Ratio setting (final frequency is displayed at the top-left of the Ai Tweaker menu).
