Due to the High Performance Memory design, motherboards
or system configurations may or may not operate smoothly
at the JEDEC (Joint Electron Device Engineering Council)
standard settings (BIOS Default on the motherboard) such
as DDR voltage, memory speeds and memory timing. Please
confirm and adjust your memory setting in the BIOS
accordingly for better system stability.
Example: Kingston HyperX DDR500 PC4000 operates at
2.65V, 3-4-4-8, CL=3.
