Just finished my new build, and attempted to overclock to 4Ghz (of course!). I was not able to get it to stay under 85C, however was able to get a stable 3.7Ghz overclock using 177 base clock and a X21 multiplier, however this lowered my RAM's speed down to 1420Mhz.
This makes me sad as the RAM I purchased is rated for 1600. It will not boot at 1770, which is the next step up my BIOS allows me to select. I am hoping you guys might be able to help!
Here is my CPUZ information:
This is stable at a 1.105 VCore, everything else at Auto.
This is the motherboard I purchased (Newegg shellshocker deal!): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&cm_mmc=TEMC-RMA-Approvel-_-Content-_-text-_-
Ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&cm_mmc=TEMC-RMA-Approvel-_-Content-_-text-_-
I've been through all the various BIOS options and cannot seem to find anywhere to be able to force this RAM to operate at anywhere close to 1600. Am I just stuck at 1400?
Let me know if there's any additional information I can provide!
