I purchased the ASUS P5G41T-M LE motherboard to fit 8 GB of RAM. I also bought a G.Skill F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL, but it isn’t functioning properly. The manual states a maximum of 8 GB DDR3 memory at 1333 MHz. When checking in the command prompt, it confirms support for 8 GB. Another Hitachi kit with 2x2 GB also works. I looked on the website to see if there were any CPU restrictions, but it mentioned compatibility with CPUs. I’m unsure what’s causing the issue. Help would be appreciated!
1600 MHz is significantly higher than what the G41 chipset supports, and these DIMM modules lack JEDEC profiles for speeds below 1333 MHz. Occasionally you might manage to get them to boot if you adjust the speed and timing manually, but it’s usually better to use a set of 1066 MHz DIMMs.
It's not recommended to switch frequencies without proper justification. Using 1333 MHz instead of 1066 MHz may not work as intended and could cause issues.
