Hey guys! Got my RAM yesterday and installed them. I turned on XMP and let them run. By now, I've been through 4 wake cycles and NO BSODs...

Hey guys, Hope you're well! Just wanted to give you an update on what I'm doing with my comp: When I asked if I should indeed sell my new RAM as opposed to trying to raise the voltage, I had already listed them on Ebay. After I got your suggestions, I really intended to give them a shot, but...

Hey Trouble, Not a bad idea either. I'll definitely give both a shot. Thanks for your input! Fil

Thanks for the insight! And thanks again for all your help! I'll definitely keep in touch! Fil

Hi Kemical, First off, no BSOD. Just to put you at ease :) Just wanted your opinion. I've tested my RAM with higher voltages (NB Core @ 1.25V and DRAM at 1.70V) but the BSOD after sleep keeps coming. G.Skill says that even though my RAM isn't listed on the Mobo compatibility chart, that they...

Sounds good Kemical. Thanks again for the help/guidance! I'm going to test my RAM with higher voltage to the RAM incrementally and see if I can get it stable. If not, at very least I can sell my new sticks on ebay and get some compatible sticks. Glad I kept my old ones! P.s. Just woke up my...

Another update. Another wake cycle and no BSOD with my old RAM. And another wake cycle that I was able to wake the machine via keyboard. So I could have sworn I saw people online with the same Mobo/RAM combo as I and I hadn't heard of any issues from them. Is it possible that I just need to...

So let me re-explain the power situation: My computer's power cable (what I believe you are calling the Power lead: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812228823) is plugged into the computers PSU and plugged directly into a wall outlet...

I have some older RAM I should be able to run. I'll try two sticks in Slots 1 and 2 and we'll see what happens. As far as unplugging the cable, I am unplugging the power cable from the wall outlet. And by power lead, do you mean the cable from the PSU to the wall outlet? I can try that too. One...

Wow that was way too fast for my liking. New BSOD: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5772230/BSOD/9-26-14.zip I will try another wake cycle with the current config, but it sounds like my next steps are: Using RAM module #1 in slot 2 and RAM module #2 in slot 1 Using RAM #1 in slot 3 and RAM...

Just an update: I haven't tried adding anything back quite yet. My last wake attempts have been successful, with the caviat that every time I went to wake it, I would have to unplug/replug the power cable and then hit the power button to wake. It would always resume correctly though. Before...

I also want to note that my last two sleep cycles have been BSOD free; albeit on both instances my computer needed to be unplugged/replugged into the wall outlet (see issue description in previous post). My current config is as follows: RAM stick #1 (I've marked them with a sharpie) in Slot #1...

That is interesting. Unfortunately, I have the latest firmware (see Vertex 3 on this page: http://ocz.com/consumer/download/firmware): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5772230/BSOD/vertex-firmware.png Even with swapping the power outlets, my computer needs to be unplugged and replugged back...

I've swapped RAM modules and ran SpeedFan (extended test): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5772230/BSOD/speedfan-C.png (no errors) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5772230/BSOD/speedfan-M.png (updated - no errors) I couldn't find what particular SATA ports are Marvell enabled via the...

Hey Kemical, So I checked all over my BIOS settings and I cannot find a way to enable S.M.A.R.T. options. (Here's my Mobo for reference: http://download.gigabyte.us/FileList/Manual/mb_manual_ga-990fxa-ud3_e.pdf) I then remembered Speccy (https://www.piriform.com/speccy) has a section for this...
