Sabertooth 1055t and 16gb kingston hyperx genisis

Ok heres the deal, i have a sabertooth 990fx+1055t+4x4gb kingston hyperx memory, I moved from a gigabyte 790xt-ud4p, in my last board, I had no trouble getting 1055t t 3.5x stable with memory at 167*mhz, with this sabertooth I have had nothing but trouble trying to get it stable...

I have tried loose timings, higher and lower memory volts, every bios made for the board...it just dosnt want to stabilize.

thats the memory I have.

also note, I have re-tested with the gb board and it works fine still.

my system

amd 1055t+corecontact freezer
sabertooth 990fx
4x4gb kingston hyperx
2x6870 1gb
bunch of hdd's
1200watt pc p&c turbocool


any suggestions would be welcome, including proper drive str's and timings.....anything that could help.....

also note, i have tested each stick for 5 passes of memtest seperatly and they are all good from memtests perspective.

I thought i had said this, I have used/tried every bios revision for this board.... only diff for me is sometimes various bios will pull the poweron then shut off without posting...

I would suspect that the board is not 100% as your issues are not replicated with the other board, are you using all the same hardware when you use the giga board or only the board?

Me I would RMA the board to the egg and list the issues.
To help us help you - please provide as much information about your system and the problem as possible.

i got mine from amazon and AFIK its well out of exchange period via amazon, would have to rma with asus, and my exp with asus rma is, they say 2 weeks when it really takes them 3-4....hence my desire to avoid that.....if only they offered an advanced RMA like seagate...

if the other board wasnt in a now in use system i would just swap back till i got the replacement....

sadly my income is seriously limited due to my being disabled (severe psoratic arthritis) or i would just buy another board to hold me over....

I was hoping to avoid 3 weeks of down time 😞
