Hello,
I would like to ask you if is possilbe that I have a problem with compatibility on my AMD FX 8150 with Corsair Vengeance 16GB DDR3(dual) 1866MHz (CMZ16GX3M2A1866C10).
I bought on the Internet and they say that is compatible with AMD
( http://www.scan.co.uk/products/16gb-%282x8gb%29-corsair-ddr3-vengeance-performance-pc3-14900-%281866%29-non-ecc-unbuffered-cas-10-11-10-30- )
but Corsair official web side says that is compatible only with Intel
( http://www.corsair.com/us/memory/intel-memory-upgrades/dual-channel-intel-memory-upgrade-kits.html )
I do not know what is true.
I have a GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ (rev 1.2)
My friend has the same board and CPU but 16 GB ram Kingston(1600 quad) and in 3DMark he makes cca 40k in CPU test and me poorly 19k.
In second CPU(Crash&burn) test I touch only 25 steps/s and he has 150. It is 6 times more.
I have check everything what I know and found only this problem.
With the DDR.
Could anyone check it for me and answer please.
Or recommended me some DDR3 witch will work fine. Meaby Corsair but on 1600?
If you will need some more info just ask me.
Thank you
