Z77X-D3H, 3570k and 1600Mhz Memory Woes

[djkav]

I'm using this kingston ram on my z77x-d3h with an i5 2500k @ 4.2ghz. I have no issues at all.

I have all 4 ram slots populated with 4gb dimms.

I've ordered the same mobo so am glad I spotted this thread before taking the RAM.

Let us know how you get on with your new sticks.

Is it running on XMP profile @ 1.65v?

Is it running on XMP profile @ 1.65v?

That is correct.

 

[chrisgt]

That is correct.

i5 Ivybridge as well?

Could you grab a screenshot of the BIOS memory timings/voltage screens? Maybe manually configuring it would sort the issue...

Nope, I said it was an i5 2500k which is a sandy.

I'm just using the XMP profile with 1.65v. What BIOS are you running?

Apologies, if I had taken 2 secs to read your post and/or your sig I would've known that!

F16. Not tried the beta...

I have newer RAM coming tomorrow, which on paper is 100% compatible with this motherboard. If you have a flick through your Gigabyte manual I'm pretty sure it says it only supports DIMMs @ 1.5v. I don't know if that is a motherboard thing, or specific to Ivybridge IMC.

This is`nt the link I gave you. I linked you to 8Pack, as I thought he could best help with your problem.

I made a thread in there but it seems to have been moved out to the wider Overclocking forum

Must be for extreme OCing only.

I've opened a thread asking 8 Pack to impart some of his wisdom...but in case anyone else is interested...

Just installed my brand new Crucial 1866Mhz RAM, enabled XMP Profile1 to get it to run at advertised speeds. Started a P95 Blend test, 10 seconds in, blue screen WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR.

So this is happening with 3 lots of RAM, 2 of which were MemTest86+ tested for 12hours without issue, and 1 was brand new purchased 2 days ago.

This is so frustrating Pics as requested:

Again, BIOS is 'optimized defaults' with the only thing touched being the DRAM Profile to Profile1.

I have same mainboard as you, i5 3570K, 16gb G.Skill Ripjaws memory, 7770 GPU, Kingston 120gb SSD, F18 firmware

Never had a lock up at all

edit: I've never even been in the BIOS to change anything, apart from AHCI setting

 

[chrisgt]

Cheers for that. How comes in HWMonitor it doesn't show DRAM and CPU VTT under Voltages? That's what I'd be most interested in seeing bud - maybe your version of HWMonitor is out of date?

 

[Liquid_Entity]

haha probably, not updated in ages, I am updating now

Appreciate it!

 

[Liquid_Entity]

here we go

 

[chrisgt]

Thanks for that. CPU VTT looks interesting...

 

[Liquid_Entity]

As I said, all I did was build the PC, log in to BIOS and change to AHCI, setup windows 7 and that was it. Not touched anything else.

 

[Liquid_Entity]

I also remember from your original thread you said you had a Rev 1.0 z77 board. I just checked mine and it is also a Rev 1.0

ChrisGT how have you got on with this, working yet?
