So I tried the settings in this thread http://www.gskill.us/forum/showthread.php?t=10728
I also spent two nights trying lots of different settings and even if I set the memory to 1333MHz and use manual settings the only way it works is by using the SPD setting. I was able to get some Patriot 2x4GB memory working at 1600MHz, but again only using the SPD setting, which automatically set it there. I tried both t he XMP settings and neither worked. I tried many settings with VCCSA set to +15%(can only change it by percentage) and settings DIMM Voltage to 1.65 and even tried going up to 1.75v. Even tried setting all memory timings to their max possible values and many inbetween without any success.
The only way I can get this ram to work for me is through setting the memory to SPD setting, which runs it at 1333MHz. Also I have to change the "Misc Timings" which are:
Read-Read different ranks time to 5 or above
Read-Read different DIMMS time to 5 or above
Write-different ranks time to 5 or above
Write-Write different DIMMS time to 5 or above
Read-Write differnet rank/DIMMS time to 5 or above
Write-Read different rank/DIMMS to 5 or above
Read-Write same rank time to 5 or above
Do you know what settings this correpond to with respect to what other companies call these timings? And what they should be for this memory?
I have tried at both stock CPU speed and with a 42x multiplier. I have not tried changing the BCLK.
Also the computer will not boot if I put the memory in slot A2, I tried some Patriot Viper2 memory and it started up fine when it was in slot A2.
I have tried running both of the sticks by themselves in slot A1 and B1 and trying the manual setting.
I would just be happy to get them running at 1600MHz, which is a non-overclock memory setting.
So if you have any thing else I might try that would be great as it seems to me I should be able to get it working using manual settings at 1333MHz.
