Hey guys, so basically topic.
Just got my new rig all up and running and everything looks amazing. I am noticing however that my 8GB of Dominator is defaulting at 1066 when it's 1600.
I've gone into my BIOS and changed the operating frequency to 1600 and all seems well. I do however have the strangest feeling that I'm supposed to be changing something else as well. Am I?
Thanks guys.
EDIT: Played around with it, and set it manually. Timings to 9-9-9-24 and 1600MHz. Booted fine, got in and went at some Shattered Horizon. Freeze. Happened twice. Searched around and read about the XMP-1600 profile. Gave that a go and the system wouldn't even POST. >_<
I'm guessing at it in the dark now; For me to run these 8 gigs at 1600 I'm going to have to OC this 930 huh?
