I would suggest in this order;
1. I still think you need to check that the system bios is configured to supply the correct voltage to ur dimms and if fully populated sometimes the QPI needs to be increased. The forums for the mobo or memory manufacturer is a good port of call for specific settings
2. Try running memtest+ on each memory stick, one at a time in slot 1, 5 passes should do it (about 2hrs for a 2gb dimm) if error free on each dimm then memory is most likely OK
3. Take a close up photo with flash of the CPU socket if your comfortable dismounting the CPU. Examine the image for any signs of bent pins, its very hard to spot since they are soooooo small. DONT examine the socket itself as it is very easy to damage a pin and not easy to repair
Still think you should raise this with yoyotech if u paid them to build it
