  • Ripjaws DDR3-2400 causing BSOD

    Getting random BSOD's with my new DDR3-2400's purchased at newegg last week.
    - Changing clocking to DDR3-2133 and machine runs Prime95 perfectly (1hr)
    G.Skill Product:
    G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2400
    Model F3-19200CL11Q-16GBZHD Voltage: 1.65V Timing: 11-11-11-31
    My Platform:
    Motherboard: Asus P9X79
    CPU: I7 3930K (Sandy Bridge-E)
    Corsair H80 Cooler
    Operational Specs:
    BLCK: 100MHz
    Multiplier: 43 (Turbo'd at 4.3GHz)
    DDR: set to DDR3-2133 (should be DDR3-2400)
    Vcore = 1.35V
    Vttcpu = 1.066V
    Vccsa = 1.2V

    Before I send these back for RMA I want to make sure I am not making an error in my BIOS setup. The Memory setup is all "auto" and the values match the Ripjaws timing. Does anyone know anything I should do different?
    Thanks! -Jeff

    Prob want to make sure you have the latest BIOS first 0906, released about a week ago, can be found here:

    http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Int...9X79/#download

    Then when that's in, go into BIOS, enable XMP, select the 2400 profile and should be good to go

      Thanks for the quick reply Tradesman! I updated my BIOS this morning. Ran prime95 with 5 threads for about 1 hour and it crashed. I am continuing to fiddle with voltages. I'm trying the following now:

      Vcore = 1.38
      Vttcpu = 1.17
      Vccsa = 1.28
      BLCK = 100
      Mult = 44
      Temps: <70

      Any other advice is very appreciated. Have a great new year, -Jeff

        I'd say VTTCPU up to 1.24, assuming DRAM at 1.65?

          I adjusted the voltages up little by little. It just failed after 7 hours of operation with Prime95 (5 Threads): got a round off error in Prime95 & then the computer locked up.

          Vcore = 1.35V
          Vttcpu = 1.3
          Vccsa = 1.3
          Vdram = 1.65
          Spread Spectrum = disabled
          Clock Gen Filter: 10UF

          Raising Vccsa / Vttcpu definitely made it better. But these voltages are getting rather high. Should I push Vttcpu a little higher? Is is OK to push Vdram up a bit?
          Thanks for the help! -Jeff

            Yes, try taking DRAM up a bit maybe + .04-.05

              Have you tested each module with XMP to make sure all are error free?

              This kit should work with just XMP enabled..

              Thank you

                My asus P9X79 started smoking. Its out for RMA. I'll report back when I get my new one. Maybe that was the problem all along.
                Thanks very much for following up, -Jeff

                    System now working at 4.4GHz

                    Hello, Wanted to report back now that I have a replacement motherboard. Its running stable at 4.4GHz with prime95 with 6 threads. Temps start exceeding 80 with 100% usage.
                    - set XMP mode
                    Turbo = x44
                    - Vcore = 1.39V (manual)
                    - Vccsa = 1.26V (manual)
                    - Vttcpu = Auto
                    - Vdram = 1.65V
                    - DDR3-2400
                    - Clock Gen Filter: enabled
                    - Spread Spectrum: DISABLED
                    - Cooler: Noctua NH-D14

                    QUESTION: I would like to push it to 4.6GHz but I can not come up with a good procedure. Are there any good guides for overclocking the P9X79 (or similar?)

                    Thanks!

                      Now that the DRAM is stable, should be able to raise the multiplier to x46 and may have to feed in a bit of vCore voltage (to 1.41 maybe, 1.4 might work
