1tonhamburger Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 i bought this kit few months ago and recently when i tried to set the memory speed to 1600Mhz my pc will just freeze when it is stressed i tried setting the primary timing and voltage manually or just leave everything at auto on the bios, both ended up with pc freezing when it is stressed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 14, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 14, 2012 Did you try and update to the latest MB BIOS and then load setup defaults and enable XMP? If not please test them one at a time with http://www.memtest.org to be sure one is not failing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1tonhamburger Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 MB bios is updated when i load setup default the memory speed on the ram will b set to 1333Mhz, i have to manually set it to 1600hz and the pc will freeze when stressed enable XMP and using profile 1 results in same pc freeze situation how long do i need to memtest each 1 of them?

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 16, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 16, 2012 Have you tried the modules one at a time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1tonhamburger Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 yeah i tried 1 module at a time on different slots for memtest after i set the speed and the timing on bios i noticed that when a single module is running on A2 slot the speed and primary timing were at 1600Mhz and 9-9-9-24 but when i tried it at B1 or B2 slot the speed remains but the primary timing went down to 6-6-6-20, i double checked at bios and confirm the timing were set at 9-9-9-24 no errors were found by memtest after 2 passes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 23, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 23, 2012 You will have to load setup defaults and enable XMP do not change any other settings and the slots you should use for single module operation should be listed in the manual.
