Hello,
My complete pc specs are as follows:
AMD FX-8350 4.00GHz 8MB AM3+ Box
Asus M5A97 R2.0 AMD 970, SATA600 RAID, USB3.0
F3-1866C9D-8GAB 2x4GB
Seagate Harddisk 3.5" 1TB, SATA600, 7200rpm, ST1000DM003
Asus PCI-e GeForce GTX750Ti PH 2GB
Samsung SSD 2.5", 120GB, SATA600, 840 EVO
Cx600M PSU
Windows 8.1 64 bit
This pc was never running stable from the start. I used to have blue screens and programs crashing at random or not even starting up at all. I am really getting frustrated now since all blue screens I get are ram related and I have tested the ram multiple times without finding an error. The ram chips are placed in the correct slots on the motherboard. I have also tried using 1 ram module at a time, but this did not help. I also tested the pc with another PSU, video card and harddrive and W7 64 bit OS. This also did not help.
I used the information I found posted by Gskill on tomshardware to get my ram running at 1866Mhz, because it would only run on 1600Mhz. I used both methods mentions there, the Manual and DOCP method. I manually set the timings to 9-10-9-28. I am not sure if I should let the ram running at 1T or at 2T, could not find the proper settings anywhere.
Just to be sure I raised the cpu-NB voltage by 0.1V. I have raised the voltage over the ram to 1.55 and 1.65, both voltages did not help with the stability issues. After that I tried increasing the NB frequency to 2400Mhz because somebody advised me to do that. That did not help though. I turned off Amd turbo core technology because I thought that fluctuating frequencies might make the Pc unstable and it also gave me funny numbers with the ram frequencies.
Here are some pictures of the bios settings I am using.
This is not the only BS I get. I get a lot of different ones, but they are all related to RAM.
I hope somebody knows how to solve my problems. I should have looked in the QVL of the motherboard. The RAM I am using is not stated in there, but I have never had any problems with that in the past so I just ignored that.
Thanks in advance.
Edit, I messed up the title. It should be F3-1866C9D-8GAB.
