G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-14900CL10Q-32GBZL

Pros: 32 gb of memory would be great if i could use it all. right now my motherboard is only reading 16gb

Cons: I just bought a ASUS Sabertooth Z77 motherboard with the gskill memory 32gb and it is only reading 16 gb of memory. Need immediate problem solving advice. Is this memory even compatible with the ASUS Sabertooth motherboard?

Dear Customer

We can surely help you with this problem. First, reinstall the memory and make sure each module is firmly inserted. If one does not firmly click in, you can try another slot to see if it fits better. To determine whether bad modules may be causing the problem, test each stick to see if they all detect 8GB. If a module does not boot, or is not fully stable, send the memory in for RMA exchange and a replacement should work better. To determine whether bad slots may be causing the problem, test each slot with a working module to see if each can boot. The memory is definitely compatible with the motherboard, so that is not the issue. If all modules work fine individually, but not together, it may be a bad motherboard. For any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us directly. We will make sure the RAM is working fast and stable in your computer.

Dear Customer

We can surely help you in achieving the rated specifications of the RAM. The AMD CPU memory controller will be overloaded with four 8GB modules of DDR3-1866, so additional tweaks are necessary to stabilize the system. In addition to the basic RAM settings, you will need to boost the CPU-NB Voltage +0.1V, and that should help the CPU memory controller support this high performance, high capacity RAM. With the memory configured properly, it will be very fast and stable with your 990FX motherboard and FX-8320 CPU. For any further questions or concerns, feel free to contact us directly. The G.Skill support team will make sure your computer runs at maximum performance.

Dear Customer

We are more than glad to help you. If not one module can boot in any slot, the motherboard must be defective. It is impossible four memory modules are completely dead from factory. Once the motherboard is replaced and you receive a good one, the memory should work flawlessly in your system. Keep in mind the memory is much above standard, so you will need to manually input settings in BIOS, or enable the XMP Profile. The XMP Profile will allow the motherboard to automatically detect and set all memory settings such as DRAM frequency, timings, and voltage. With proper configuration, your computer will be very fast and stable. For any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us directly.

Pros: Completely able to be overclocked and excellent right out of the box this kit is the best bang for the buck. Played with overclocking it on my latest build using amd overdrive and it performed like a total monster, I love it. Can't wait to set up a watercooling loop and take it too far LOL.

Cons: NONE! (oh maybe that it didn't install itself LOL).

Other Thoughts: Current build (7.8 on windows experience meter if that maters)

various media drives
(EK H30 Supreme HFX 360 watercooling kit on the way)

Pros: first off didnt have any issues out of package, works great, and will always recommend Gskill.

Cons: none that i have so far.

Pros: Built with quality materials, Heat sinks seem fitted well, and pretty red.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: The Asus Sabertooth X79 showed 1333 in bios at first post, change it to 1866 and set timmings and alls good now. WEI shows 7.9 in Windows 7 Pro x64.

Pros: *Fast
*Cheap (compared to other brands)
*Overclockable
*No DOA
*Sweet heatsinks that match my motherboard

Cons: *Not free:(

Other Thoughts: My very first kit of RAM was 4GB of G-Skill Ripjaws, and when I decided to upgrade to 16GB I don't know why I went with corsair. But luckily I was smart enough to return to G-Skill for my 32GB kit. I'm a G-skill customer for life.

Pros: I had my system for over 5 months, my system has been rocked sold! Systems specs Amd FX-8350, DDR3 1866 32GB RAM, Gigabyte Radeon HD 7970 GHz edition, PC Power Cooling Silencer Mk II 750W Powers supply, 5 hard drives, tv tuner card, Blu-ray Burner, Gigabyte Ga-990fxa-UD3 motherboard, IN WIN Dragon rider case. Cpu is over clocked to 4.5 GHZ and memory is running at its rated speed.

Cons: None for me, but Ram prices are higher now, then it was back then.

Pros: 32 Gigs
Worked out of the box, no DOA sticks thankfully
First time using G.Skill and I'm quite impressed.

Cons: Required a bit of Overclocking to get the correct speeds, once in a blue moon it BSODs, but past that works like a charm and I'm not gunna dock it because of that.

Other Thoughts: I've been a huge Corsair person but I was comparing the size per price and for the Corsair Dominator Platinum 16 gig kit, it was the same price as G.Skill's 32 gig kit so I grabbed this. As I said it's my first time using G.Skill and so far their product is really good.

Pros: I felt it handled the speed of the overclock during calculations and was more stable overall than the previous triple channel .. Likes speed.

Cons: can't find it yet.

Other Thoughts: Used as triple channel ram in a Classy 3 and a P6T deluxe V2. X58 It never flinches and I use it for photoshop, I watch the needle constantly while working...I use the ram..

In X58 Run as triple while overclocking it goes up to about 1750 quite easily, after that its tough.. LOL..

Enjoyed G.skill I did..
