My RAM- CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9 (Corsair Vengeance 1866MHz)
My Mother Board- Gigabyte X-97 SOC
I have sticks of RAM now and my system has been running with 2x4GB sticks for nearly a year and i decided t buy 2 more sticks of the exact same RAM to get 16GB (4x4GB)
My first two when running were at 1866MHz which is the standard speed for this RAM. When i added my 2 new sticks in the PC wouldn't boot not even to BIOS. jut black screened. Took the two new ones out and it worked fine then i tested the new two together and they worked etc.
FINALLY got then working but at 1800MHz with all 4 sticks installed but when going to 1866MHz it black screened again and didn't boot.
I have tried...
-Memory voltage from 1.500 up to 1.540 don't want to go any higher.
-Change the timing's and increased them all (bigger number so they are slower) all by 3.
-Looked at other BIOS settings can't find much more myself.
I know 1800 - 1866MHz is a barely noticeable difference but i bought the RAM for the speeds and just wanted to try and get them speeds from all 4 sticks.
Any suggestions or ideas on any other settings i can tweak to get a result?
Thanks for reading!
