Major Issue with RipJaws F3-12800CL9Q-16GBRL

[Stephan88]

Good Morning,

I've build a new system and since I have random windows 7 freeze and/or very low system performance / programs crashing .
I will much appreciate if you could help me configuring my BIOS in order to end these issues I encounter.

My configuration is has follow:

Asus Rampage III Extreme (Asus Official version 0901)
Intel Core i7 980X
GSkill RipJaws F3-12800CL9Q-16GBRL (4*4)
Nvidia GTX 460
Windows 7 64bits Ultimate


Many thanks in advance for your help,

Best regards,

Stephan

Set AI Overclock Tuner to Profile 1, and everything should be fine.

Thank you

Hi,

I did set the AI Overclock Tuner to Profile 1 in the XMP menu , this makes things even worst. After the setting the PC cannot reboot.

Please advice other settings, the issues (freeze and/or very low system performance / programs crashing) described in my first post are still happening.

Kind regards,

Stephan

Are the timings in manually 9-9-9-24? Is Command rate at 2N? May have to raise DRAM voltage to 1.55V (which is safe) if currently at 1.5

Hi,

Yes the DRAM Timing is set manually to 9-9-9-24 (except the last 2 parameters which you did not provided values for and which I left to auto) + the command rate is manually set to 2N too. Result: no reboot
So I will try to increase the dram voltage but it is already by default to 1.66 (a bit high for a default value isn't it?)

Do you have some other lead to follow?

Thanks.

1.66 DRAM Voltage is way too high! Decrease immediately to between 1.50-1.55v

Other changes to make in your BIOS;

Change QPI/DRAM Voltage to 1.30v
Change CPU Voltage to 1.26v

Save changes and reboot.
