Help me achieve 2400MHz with samsung green

Your RAM is stable with that amount of mem test for sure.

IBT is a waste of time anyway. It degrades chips, Intels own engineers don't use it and they cringe at how the general user does.
 
i got 16gig of the samsung greens and cannot clock them at all. currently I would be just fine with 2133

i tried with the suggested timings form here, also vdimm up to 1.6, vtt up to 1.10 and imc up to 1.110 without success.

suggestions? the board is gigabyte z77x ud5h


i am currently testing 2000 10-10-10-28 with prime95.

720k-896 for ram stability - getting error after a few seconds, what should i change? (vdimm 1.55, imc 1.100, vtt 1.110

Post your second and third timings its them that help most when trying to stabalise an overclock.
 
Hi 8 Pack,

I've recently put a new build together, first in a very long time and finding oc'ing quite tricky (terminology wise).

So far I've got the Sammys up to 2133MHz on 11-11-11-24 1T @ 1.5655v. If I tighten the timings it causes my mobo to boot loop. Currently this is passing 24hrs in Prime 95 blend and without getting any WHEA warnings in the Windows Event Viewer. The latter has been something I've noticed as being harder to achieve than simply getting Prime stable. I have got some higher stable CPU oc's too up to 4.6 but I think the mem is harder to get stable as the CPU is pushed further. Although I can get the CPU stable at 4.7 in small ffs test, it causes WHEA warnings when I run Prime blend test, which I think is mem related.

I'm using the latest official bios release (v10.5 / A50) but I've recently learnt there are also some beta bios' available but not sure yet whether these add greater mem stability.

It would be good to achieve 2400MHz if you are able to give me any pointers please from the screen shots below, that would be great.

It seems from this article that around 2400MHz is the sweet spot.

I posted the timings I used for 2400 in the Samsung Thread. Start with those especially the thirds.

oh dear.. how did you know this? I've been using IBT a long time now, I thought it was more accurate. is OCCT a better program to use?
