Hello all. I am trying to get my system dialed in and have had some really great help from a few people. I am very new to overclocking and this is the first system I have built. I am sadly already addicted to this drug.
Anyway, I am thinking that my CPU is overclocked correctly and seems to be stable in the games I play. but I think there is a problem with the RAM settings. my ram is rated for 1600 but if I go over the 5.33 to the 6.66 setting to get my memory to 1666 I cant pass the memtest, and games will crash. I dont know if this is a voltage issue or if I just cant fully use the memory. If I back it down to 1332 it will pass memtest and games dont crash. I would also like to adjust the timings, however I think I need to get this solved before I can move on.
If anyone has some advice or needs more info and would be willing to throw some advice my way I would be very grateful. I am reading Dolk's guide but the memory section is like trying to read arabic.
I would like to overclock this or at least get the max I can out of it, just not sure where I should go from here. Thanks in advance for any advice.
