Question:
Hi,
I put this system together and thought it was running slow. I looked at the memory speed and noticed it was running at only 1066MHz and the timings were wrong. For the most part, everything is set to the default bios with the only thing I changed being the boot order. It appears that I can't change the CPU settings. Not that I am that concerned about overclocking it right now, but I just want the proper settings for it.
So, next I changed the Memory to the XMP profile and the proper timings 16-18-18-36 were put in automatically. I saved the bios and the reboot failed, giving me a message to boot back into the bios in order to fix it. I loaded the optimized settings, rebooted and it worked, but again with the slower speed and settings.
I then updated to the F4 Bios from Gigabyte. I changed to the XMP profile and the system booted into Windows. However, only 32 (DRAM #1 and #2) of the 64GB was recognized. The bios showed all 64GB if I remember correctly. The system was faster, though, with the proper speed on the memory. Changing to the optimized settings still only showed the 32GB in Windows.
So, I changed the bios down to version F3 and then both the bios as well as Windows saw only the 32GB no matter how it was set with auto or XMP.
Then, I rolled the bios back to F2 and now just have a slow system with the bios set to AUTO across the board but it sees all 64GB of RAM.
Can you tell me how to set up the bios so that everything is running as optimized as it should? This has me stumped!
NOTE: The memory is on the compatibility list for this motherboard
Thank you!
