I was just thinking of getting that memory for my 780i gaming motherboard. Looks like it will work on mine since I am able to run 1066 memory no problem.
On the Newegg site there is a Manufacturer reply on one of the reviews, stating setting that should be set. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231246 Says: Dear Customer We are sorry to hear you are having an issue with your memory package. Please contact our technical support department directly and they will be able to further assist you. When installing memory, please make sure to properly configure the memory settings in BIOS, otherwise the computer may not run properly. For this memory package, the memory frequency should be set to DDR2-1066, memory timings tCL 5 - tRCD 5 - tRP 5 - tRAS 15 - Command Rate 2. Memory Voltage should be set to 2.10V. Once that is complete, everything should be running smoothly. Thank you GSKILL SUPPORT Quality and customer service are our top priorities.
