1. Your CPU only supports up to 1333 MHz memory (which is what it's running at), so you'd have to overclock your CPU to allow the CPU's onboard memory controller to run the memory at 1600 MHz.
2. Wrong version of memtest (use the one on the sidebar).
Ok. That's fail! the guy who told me to buy that ram didnt notice it either.
How should i overclock it best? Is there any programm which helps me to find the max possible setting without killing the cpu?
Or could you help me out please? I am no expert at all :(
Do you need more information?
I'll do another memtest (with the right programm) in a few hours when im back home.
