New build with:
Asus Rampage Gene III
F3-12800CL9T-6GBNQ
I7-990X at stock speed
Asus Radeon HD 6870
The documentation for the memory says tested at 1.5v On boot up the system defaulted to DDR3-800 running at 1.6v. I changed the frequency to DDR3-1600 and rebooted.
The system worked and the memory is running at DDR3-1600 speed. The issue is the voltage jumped to 1.66v on its own. I manually adjusted the voltage to 1.5v and the system would not boot. Only when I got back to 1.6v did the system run.
So, is this normal? Should the memory run at DDR3-1600 at 1.5v? Should I leave the voltage at 1.6v or move it back to 1.66v
Regards,
Robert
