Corsair Dominator Won't run at 1600mhz

[Inflames_74]

So Ive put together a new computer , i7 950 , EVGA x58 Ftw3 and Corsair DDR3 1600.

 

Everything worked fine and all. I used XMP and also tried my own settiings ( 8-8-8-24 /1.65v)

 

Then when i run OCCT medium , I'm getting a hard lock everytime or a bsod (win32.sys / System_service_exception)

 

I down clocked the ram to 1066 and ran occt , Went all fine.

 

I ran Memtest on each stick , and then all 3 together , No errors.

 

Tried again XMP and i'm getting a hard lock again. I'm so lucky getting those stupid memory stick to run at rated speeds. I'm getting tired of memory stick that doesn't run well. Last time it was my 1066 mem with my old Motherboard But i thought it was cause the mobo sucked , and the memory too. And now that i spend 250$ on a motherboard and 160$ on memory sticks. I would've thought it would run at the rated speed. Anyways Its late so sorry for the grammar errors and my frustration xD

 

So if anyone is kind enough to help me , It would be greatly appreciated.

 

Also , Happy new year.

Actually wired , I found out, Or pretty sure i did. I bumped up the CPU VTT which was to 0mv up to +150Mv

 

And it worked.

 

I ran OCCT for 10 min straight , And i couldn't for 2min before. Also i did 10 min of prime 95.

 

Thanks wired.

also the ram number is TR3X6G1600C8D 1.65v

 

I'll do further investigation tomorow . I just couldn't go sleep till i resolve that one.

 

Im gonna drop the CPU VTT till i get hard locks again. So i know the limit.

 

Anyways i'm planning to Overclock my CPU soon so.. Everything's gonna change pretty much. I just wanted to know if i had faulty ram / Mobo
