Hey guys,
I am getting quite frustrated with my new build. I have never overclocked the RAM before, and decided to this time and it has only brought me troubles. I am hoping you guys can help me out here and get me more comfortable with it.
I have tried my RAM at nearly every setting that I can find that people have posted with no luck. The system is yet to even start up with the settings I find. It sometimes even takes a few restarts to just get into the UEFI. If it matters, I have noticed that my 3570K crashes at anything above 4 GHz at 1.2V.
I am currently at these timings:
9-9-9-24 1800MHz @1.5V
I'm not sure this is even stable because sometimes I will get a "Prime95 has stopped responding" while running a blend test.
These are stable for an hour on Prime95.
The timings I have tried that failed (there are more, but here are just some that appear lots of places):
9-9-9-24 1866 MHz @ 1.5V
10-10-10-28 2133MHz @ 1.5V (I even tried 1.6V with no luck)
11-11-11-28 2133 MHz @ 1.4V
Here are some screenshots of my UEFI. I looked through guides, and thought I knew what I was doing, but I guess not.
Please help me out and let me know what I am doing wrong
