It appears that the manual for the GA-K8N-SLI, Pro-SLI, and Ultra-SLI states you can use 1 GB, 2 GB, or 4 GB as a memory configuration. The 3 GB is not supported (possibly because one bank would be dual mode and one bank is single mode). The 1 GB configuration should have one stick in slot 1 or 3. The 2 GB configuration should have a stick in slots 1 & 2 or 3 & 4, but 1 & 2 is preferred.

GA-EP43 -UD3L motherboard will not boot with 16 GB of memory

Time to RMA, sounds like you have a faulty memory channel on the MB. Possibility the slots are not getting enough power to handle all 4, you try to see if you can increase power in bios.

Hi!

The best processor you can use with your GA-K8NE ( socket 754) is the AMD Athlon 64 3700+ Newcastle. It has 1MB of L2 cache, system bus of 1600 MT/s.

This processor is supported on both revisions of the motherboard (rev.1.x and rev 2.x)

Regards,

Bogdan

Outdoorsman_197i have a memory problem with a ga-k8n -pro mother board i put a 1 gig stick of memory in it and it only shows it as a 256 stick and suggestions what could be doing this

Here is the link to your manual which states that the motherboard should recognize up to 4 Gb of DDR ram, 1Gb max in each of the 4 slots:

http://download.gigabyte.ru/manual/motherboard_manual_ga-k8n(pro)(ultra)-sli_e.pdf

You may need ADOBE READER installed on your computer to read PDF documents. You can download this free at WWW.ADOBE.COM if necessary. Click on the DOWNLOAD ADOBE READER button on right side of the ADOBE home page when you get there, and then just follow the onscreen instructions to install it.

One way to find out for sure how much RAM is in your computer and how much it can hold is to go to WWW.CRUCIAL.COM and run their SCAN MY COMPUTER feature.

This handy utility will scan your hardware configuration and tell you exactly how much RAM you currently have installed and what type it is.

It will also tell you how many RAM slots are fitted on your motherboard and what the maximum memory capacity is for each slot and the total capacity for that motherboard.

If your computer does have room to add more RAM, it will provide you with specific recommendations as to exactly what type and size of RAM stick to get to maximize the memory capacity and performance of your computer.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.

Toshiba sattelite

The problem must be the amount of total memory. Maybe the board supports only 1 gig. Chek the manual.

Installing 2 sticks of 1 gb ram = DRAM error beeps

If the computer is working with one gb stick and not the other, try this:

Swap the sticks with the one that does work. If it works then its the memory card slot on the motherboard. If it doesn't boot up, then it's the memory stick.
