  • 3000mhz trident z rgb only going to 3200mhz

    So i love this new ram i got, running 16gb of it on an asus maximus IX apex which can handle 4266mhz ram, not hat i expect this ram i have to go that high lol..but when i go anything higher than 3200mhz it dosent boot at all...is this normal? if anything ill just get the 4266mhz kit of trident z anyway..but if i could get 3400-3600mz out of this that would be amazing.

    Which model exactly and what settings did you try?

    My F4-3000C14D-16GTZR did DDR4-3866 CL16 no problem at standard voltage. However not all ICs do scale the same. So if you got for example the CL16 kit, these probably use another type of IC and because of that scale differently. You can check IC type for your modules via Thaiphoon Burner and do a search on them and their usual OC headroom.

      F4-3000C15D-16GTZR is my model and all i tried was going in bios and setting the value higher than 3000 no other adjustments were made.

      What i mean by setting is where you can choose the drop down menu of values

      3000
      3200
      3466 etc

        Have you checked for the ICs yet? Your kit could be based on Samsung 8Gbit B-Die like mine, but could also be built from something else. So going forward knowing what you are working with would probably help... and the Apex also has tons of presets for certain IC types.

        Otherwise try raising the primary timings a bit, for a single sided kit 16-16-16-36 otherwise for a double sided one 16-18-18-36 and if that does not help raise Vdimm in small steps.
