Duel channeling problem

[99nasha]

Right, I got my other stick of ram today and put it in my motherboard. I started getting the blue screen quite often and 3D mark was crashing. I had my PC overclocked a bit with one stick. And I just kept these same speeds when I added the next. Its seems to run stable when everything is at default settings but why not my orignal speeds?

Whats going on here?

So it's working now at stock speeds? Have you tried OCing it again after you got dual channel to work?

unless you baught the memory in a dual channel kit with 2 x 512 the ram wont be dual channel. especially if you got the second stick at a differnt time

Why would the time scale make any diffrence??

And yes I have overclocked again and 3D mark is still crashing. You think it could be faulty memory?

Yes it could be a faulty memory. Are the memory stick EXACTLY like each other, every little detail?

Yep...Same everything. Only one company makes tracer

If it's a different batch of RAM, it could prevent you from dual channeling.

if you want to dual channel you MUST buy the dual channel kit, 2 of the same sticks baught at the same time even do not dual channel

Well that sucks...Anybody want to buy 512MB of tracer?

u can still use the memory together theyre just not gonna dual channel, just oc them if u cant sell them
