So what do you do when.....

[Bunnykillah]

Your sticks of ram start popping out of their slots during heavy usage(games). Never seen it happen before. But when I play like EVE or TF2 for an extended period of time my system will lock up. When I open the case my memory stick is at a 10 degree angle from the mainboard. I have heard of this happening before, but not as fast as it is happening to me. The ram doesn't feel loose in the slots at all and the little tabs seem to be holding them in place tight. This ever happen to anyone else?

Are you running ridiculously hot and the clips are expanding due to heat?

[Bunnykillah]

Yeah. I have 2x 1GB sticks and a 512mb stick. All 3 have heat spreaders. Just odd how it started to happen all of a sudden. I have heard of memory slowly working it way out of the slots before. But after 30min? lol

[Shuemue]

It's a new one on me too, ram is usually harder to get out than in for me

If you have heatspreaders, you need some kind of cooling for them. Try ghetto-rigging a fan to the ram.

Fucking push the RAM in. It takes a LOT of force. The clips should click in on their own.

I've known BK a little while now and I'm pretty sure he knows how to install memory correctly.

Use zip ties to keep the clips shut then. Or superglue...
