Problem overclocking Rampage IV Black Edition vs Asus X79 Deluxe

Hello Everyone,

I just upgraded my motherboard from Asus X79 Deluxe to Rampage IV Black Edition and I am having problems with overclocking. With X79 Deluxe I ran my CPU with 4.5Ghz and RAM at 2400 without any problems. With Rampage when I push CPU to 4.5Ghz my Ram drops to 667. If I raise my RAM to 2400 it adjusts CPU to 3.9Ghz. What could be the problem? Thank you for your help.

Also, one more thing, with Asus X79 Deluxe I had Thermaltake 3.0 Ultimate Extreme S Water Cooling System, but it broke and temporarily I put in Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO while I'm figuring out custom liquid cooling set-up. The temperatures with Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO seem to be fine.

Intel Core i7-4930K
G.Skill Trident X Series 16GB (x2)
EVGA GeForce GTX 980 4GB FTW2 way SLI
SeaSonic 1050W 80+ Platinum
Microsoft Windows 7 Pro

Is XMP enabled?

Yes, it is. X79 overclocked with XMP on without any issues, Rampage either gives me CPU (4.5) or RAM(2400) but does not give me both .

Disable XMP and set the RAM speed, timings, and voltage manually.

Thank you very much! It worked after entering RAM parameters manually.

Good deal! Glad it's all fixed!
