Are you getting errors running all sticks in the black slots? There shouldn't be any dual channel errors showing up in memtest86

If the were dual channel problems, the board wouldn't read the correct amount of memory and you would have bluescreens. Also it would indicate a bad memory bank on the board more than likely
Yes that is correct. That's just the exact mb number for your RAM
You're welcome. Unfortunate that these things happen though. You have a great Mobo as we have the same one and I love it. I got a new HD coming for it Monday. Glad I can help
I've stuck with ASUS myself. I've owned many of these boards. For example
ASUS M2N68-AM Plus
ASUS M3N/H HDMI
ASUS P5K PRO
ASUS M4A88T-M (Not mine personally)
ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0
ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0
ASUS M5A97 R2.0
Of all of these boards, the M5A99FX PRO R2.0 was DOA as it only lasted 3 hours because the CPU fried the board. Replacements worked great for almost a year now issues.
I've gotten 2 M5A97 R2.0 boards. One still works today, got refund on the other as the Audio ports didn't work.
I had 2 ASUS P5K PRO boards. 8 year old boards that run still today. One of them has a slight BIOS issue, but its in the box not being used. The other one I sold and works great for the buyer.
The M2N68-AM Plus board worked well for 5 years. It still works but it has a buldging capacitor so its in the box.
The M4A88T-M Board is used at my church. This is the worst board of all of them because it has a bad memory controller. Tried different sticks and CPU. It will see the right amount of memory, but not the type of memory, and we get memory management bsods on occasion.
The M3N/H HDMI has no issues and is in a box going to be used again at some point.
Been overall happy with ASUS.
