So I have recently upgraded from an old 4690k to a 3600.
I purchased some Corsair Vengeance ram with it - 3600Mhz CL20 stuff. Now everything on the internet seems to tell me I need to get Dram calculator and tighten up timings.
I did this, imported XMP profile from Thaiphoon and chose safe settings. I managed to find settings for all the timings, as well as the voltages and procODT.
However, the system goes into a boot loop when I apply them and seems to back off some of the values.
I tried XMP and that caused instability until I updated the BIOS, where it's now stable.
Should I be happy with XMS settings? Am I missing a voltage or setting? I've read the Samsung B-die should be pretty good, but is 3600Mhz the big limit on timings?
