sapphire 6850

700W 80 plus psu

and my ram is

latest bios mem settings at default

fresh install, and im getting lots of BSOD errors (atikmpag.sys + 0x00000116) they are ati @amd driver related ( only using the display driver) im wondering if its has anything to to with the ddr3 ram since is not officially supported. maybe just a DOA card? any suggestions? the pc works fine 1) without the display drivers 2) with the om board intel gpu 3) with a 8600gt ( yes i cleaned the drivers)
