aeble Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Hello I'm experiencing a problem with my latest addition to my hardware stack.. Dominator GT TR3X6G2000C8GT ver2.1 (8-8-8-24) on ASUS Rampage III Extreme .. It will register 6gb as long as the RAM is kept under 1600mhz, but above it throws off 1 of the sticks .. I cycled through the compatibility list, and did not find my memory on the list, sadly ... So I decided to look the other way around... But couldn't find the memory in that list either ... So to me, it's not not compatible, it's just too old to even list anymore .. Are there any special tricks to getting the last few gb's rekognized when clocking to more than 1600mhz? FYI - I have another corsair set, dominators, which registers just fine even above 2000mhz - also ******** ripjaws work flawlessly at those speeds *EDIT* Forgot to mention. .. The RAM works at rated speeds in another motherboard just fine Thanks in advance for your time regards, aeble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeble Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 Mystery solved .. XMP will not allow all 6gb shown, but 2ghz 8-9-8-24-1t works with some QPI/DRAM tweaking You win some, you lose some... Time to have some fun with overclocking =) Have a nice one all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted November 28, 2011 Corsair Employee Share Posted November 28, 2011 More than likely that is your CPU holding you back the DO stepping CPU's are tricky at best to run above DDR1600. Just don't set the QPI Voltage higher than about 1.45 Volts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
