Blackruby Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Why is my EVGA X58 not booting with the 1866 Dominators on XMP? (Using Core i7 920) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted April 3, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 3, 2009 Do you have the latest BIOS version? If yo do and still will not post at with XMP enabled try setting it manually to DDR1600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackruby Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 I have the latest bios, and I'm running stable at 1600MHz manualy. But I payed €100,- extra to get the 1866MHz, so I would expect to see this speed.. This is what the EVGA guy's say about my problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted April 3, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 3, 2009 Seems to be an issue with the MB BIOS I would give it some time to mature if both are passing at 1600 then more than likely its the BIOS just needs to mature.

I'd await an official response from them, or you may want to directly contact them for their official opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVGA_JakeC Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 When you try to load the XMP profile and the board does not post what does it give you for post codes? Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackruby Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 It's kinda hard to follow because he restarts all the time, right after "Verifying DMI Pool", but I think it was 96 or 29. Thanks for helping me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackruby Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 ~Bump I'm still runing 1600MHz instead of the promised 1866MHz. Does noboby knows whats wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted April 8, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 8, 2009 Blackruby I have suggested what the problem might be and with the CPU you have DDR1600 would be about the top unless you over clock the CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
