I believe you, I have seen the people with OCZ problems. Well I only tested one set of OCZ ram also, Platinum 1600's. That's what the OP has, maybe we can help him get the error to go away... Maybe help him loosen his advanced timings...

Or maybe his ram is at 1t... Or his voltage is at 1.5v which is what OCZ SPD sets by default when it should be 1.9v...

Just out of curiousity, they only sell 1x2 & 2x2, how did you get one stick? Or do you have the other?

I am assuming he purchased 2GB only (1X2GB).  I though about his settings also, but when I looked at the pictures that he  attached, some of the screens mentioned hardware failure, so I figured he should test his RAM first (since a lot of folks don't because it is new RAM it seems) before even looking at a template.  If his stick fails the test again, then the stick is probably bad.

Funny that we get to that ... my ram is also OCZ, the 2000mhz stuff, and i will be swapping that out in the next day or two and will post back.

I ran ocz 2ghz on my 790i ultra like two years ago.  that ram was torture.   The patriot Vista linked is wonderful and I highly reccomend it for the 790i.  

OP: Please fill out a BIOS template and post it up here so we can help you properly.

E8400 @ 4.65 on 790i w/ 1.45v core, 4Ghz for 24/7 @ 1.28v

P4 531 @ 4.45 on 790i w/ 2.00v core

Q9550 @ 4.30 on 790i w/ 1.50v core, 4Ghz for 24/7 @ 1.34v

Please fill it out completely.  When you go into your BIOS, quite a few settings are going to have "auto" next to them.  Please include the actual number that is next to the word auto...in fact on the below template,  for those that are set to auto in your BIOS, write the number next to the word itself.  That way we will know that it is an auto setting, not one that you manually set.  Please add the timings and voltage that is actually written on the stick.

With the exception of your P1 & P2 being enabled, and you are running at stock speed so auto should be fine, your settings look good.  Two things:
1.  Some folks running OCZ RAM have to loosen the timings to not freeze.  Try 8-8-8-26
2.  There is a new BIOS version out DZ 19.  If you flash to the latest BIOS, do not use the Windows version.

Play with them until you hit one that is stable.  Also place P1 & P2 on auto...you really shouldn't need them enabled until you get to your higher frequencies.

Then your stick of RAM should be good.  Try running it at the recommended timings and voltage.  With the above settings, you should be stable.  You could also set your RAM speeds to "auto" and see what values the board applies to it.
CPU FSB: [1.40] (1.35 should be more than high enough for stock settings))

even though i passed the memtest86 test

I am not saying that the RAM is bad, I am saying that your board is one of the ones that don't agree with OCZ RAM.  You are running one stick of RAM with settings that should have you stable.  You could play with the below settings, but with only 2GB of RAM, you  should not have to do so, and quite frankly, they look good also (on auto).  Try placing your timings on auto, if you can run with that, go back into your BIOS and see what values auto supplied.
** Advanced Memory Settings ** 
tRRD: [Auto] 4
tRC: [Auto] 27
tWR: [Auto] 10
tWTR: [Auto] 14
tFAW: [Auto] 17
tREF: [Auto] 7.8us
tRFC: AUTO  110

i tried to run the ram on auto both timing and voltage and vise versa the same thing happen

im fine with buying new ram but only OCZ availably at local shops and what kills me the most is the price  they sell the same exact ram OCZ PLATINUM 1x2Gig 1600  for 400$ and that is one Stick 2GB ...shhhh
so is there any good OCZ ram for this board

Let's try a different approach...when you say it "freezes", what exactly does it do?  Does it give you an error code?  What version video card driver are you currently using?

my VGA driver is up to date   

Which may be part of the problem.  Some of the older cards don't play well with the newest drivers.  Some don't play well with the entire 190.XX series of drivers.  You may want to try an earlier driver.  The following link is to the Nvidia archived drivers.
