K_King Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Hi guys, I just bought these sticks along with my new CPU And MB. I have been running it at 1066 Mhz due to an inability to run it at 1600 Mhz. So far I have run the XMP profile, which sets everything as it should, and QPI was at 1.2v. So I would play some SCII, get a hard lock BSOD and it would need a reboot. I then searched and saw that some say to run 1.35. Well I tried that just now also, and it still BSODs on me while playing SCII after a few minutes. Now I have updated drivers, and nothing else is overclocked and most of the items in the BIOS are on auto as well until I figure out how to OC this on water in a few days. Any help would be appreciated, I will try to o the timings manually, although I dont know if that will fix anything as it seems like the XMP essentially sets it for you?

trackrat Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Per the registration notice, filling out your PC specs makes it easier for us to help you. For the RAM to run stable overclockerd at 1600 MHz. the CPU/mobo/RAM/PSU must all be willing and able. XMP profiles are a best guess but not guaranteed. Many people have better luck with manually setting the BIOS options. The link below may help with OC'ing settings: http://www.techreaction.net/2010/09/07/3-step-overclocking-guide-bloomfield-and-gulftown/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K_King Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 Sorry about that I swore I entered that info before I posted, but its there now. I just enabled LLC and set the settings manually, not using XMP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
