as the title suggests, my system is crashing when I try to run my memory at it's rated speed. I have 6Gb of this stuff http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-162-OC&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=1389

When all settings on the motherboard (MSI X58M) are set to auto, the memory defaults to 1066 mhz - when I try and manually set it to 1600 mhz the system boots and will stay on for a moment before the inevitable crash. The timings are set to 8-8-8-24 2T. I have set the DRAM voltage to 1.65 and the QPI voltage to 1.35...does anyone have any other suggestions I might try or can point out anything obvious i may not have done?
 
I had the some problem with the OCZ gold, soon as I run at stated speed and windows started to load got the blue screen and re-started. Run mem-test got a load of errors.

Ask for a RMA number to return.
