cammelspit Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Just bought 32GB of Hynix ECC for my unRaid server, 8GB just wasn't cutting it for VMs and dockers combined. Problem is, I installed them and in BIOS I see only 16GB and unRaid seems to think I have 32GB installed but only 15.882 GB is allocated. I know this may be a more general hardware issue here but I could really use a hand figuring out why. I tested sticks one at a time and they are being detected as 4GB each when they are 8GB DIMMS. I am using an AMD FX8350 on a Sabertooth V2. Here is the exact model of ram I got and a few pics of how unRaid sees them. it is literally just addressing half of the memory on each stick. I figured you guys here are much smarter than I am so you may have some insight that could help me here. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. Quote Link to comment
Vr2Io Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Same problem report , would you try 3 sticks http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3519829/sabertooth-990fx-skill-ripjaws-1866c9q-32gxm-problems.html Quote Link to comment
DigitalStefan Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I have a Sabertooth 990FX with FX8150. I have had 2 x 8GB Crucial ECC 1333MHz installed for some years with no problems. On Friday I added an additional 1 x 8GB Crucial ECC 1600MHz DIMM. Installed in the 3rd socket along, counting away from the CPU socket. Again, no problem. 24GB installed and usable. This morning, I added another Crucial 8GB ECC 1600MHz DIMM. Now I get 24.056GB Usable, 32GB installed. Confirmed all DIMMs are running nicely at 1333MHz. I haven't twiddled anything in the BIOS. If anyone has had any experience with this and knows how to get 32GB usable, I'd be very pleased to hear how. Quote Link to comment
