you got bent pins?

I'll have to check when I get home, but only DIMMS 1&2 are working.

Hey guys. got 2 boards that I think I fried Ram slots 3 and 4 on both(witch im sick as hell over) but anyhow need some info for testing them to see if yes they are dead or no they aren't.

 

Boards

 

Z97 MSI Gaming 5

Z97 ASUS Sabertooth S

 

RAM

Corsair Dom's Platinum 1600 DDR3

 

Here is what I did .. I Wanted to test out and see how far the ram could go. Did small oc to 1866 and then 2133 then backed off all in a span of Oh 30 mins on each . Aprox. Now I tested the Sabertooth ist and then the Gaming 5 Anyhow I went back to the sabertooth and as most of you ASUS owners know I when starting the board it goes through a test boot phase of ram then PCI-e etc etc... Ram failed.. Started doing the basics etc .. Put 1 stick in the 1st slot . Start then 1 and 2 slot . Worked . 1 and 3 . FAIL and 2 and 4 fail. I also tested every stick to see if she start. She would. Did a Bios rest , Booted bios and went back to factory sets. Still 3 and 4 wont respond. Even took out the old battery and reset it. Now I never known or even heard of a slot going bad unless it kills the stick of ram with it. is it possible that I killed the slot and the ram survived? Anyone have any other test suggestions?

 

Thanks

Gonna cuffem and stuffem. QUE QUE QUE. I love it I love it. :P

yes cpu socket

 

the memory controller is on the cpu and bent pins may affect its operation

 

i F#$%#$ a 1150 board. same thing. board works but dimm 3 and 4 dont work. nor will the board run dual channel. slot 1 and 2 work but in single channel mode.

So.....that's why my H87M Pro is only recognising 2 the first 2 dim?
