Try updating for bios. And if that don't work try clocking your to 1333 to see if it is stable.

Yeah, my old Antec 550w would cause my PC to freeze up when I more than one case fan, despite it having enough power. It was like 3 years old and kinda died.

I guess i could mess around with all kinds of settings and work to OC the ram, but i bought it because i didnt want to HAVE to OC it. Thanks for the help folks, any suggestions on the RAM? im also trying OCZ's support. |
Hmm, well glad the PSU worked out, I knew right away when you said it immediatley shut down in SLI it was the PSU.
As for the RAM, you say when you tried the manufacturer's specs it BSOD'd or was that on Auto? IIRC you said it passed memtest? At manufacturer specs or auto? Try setting everything to auto and let us know your results. I don't think you'll get the timings you want but it may be able to get the RAM stable, and when its stable check the voltage its getting, I don't know how you would do this though because I use AOD, but you have a Nvidia chipset.

When all settings are on auto, the system seems to be stable. according to CPUID the voltage on the ram is 1.5, but im not sure if thats the spd or an actual reading (i think the former) I can also get it stable at 1333 by changing the ratio and leaving the rest on auto.
The problem is, i spent the money for RAM that runs at 1600, 9-9-9-24, not RAM that i have to OC to this setting. Seems a lot of people are having problems getting this OCZ RAM stable at those settings. Its standard to have to manually set the timings for it, but i shouldnt have to go through the whole process of guess and check overclocking.
Ive sent in a support ticket to OCZ for an answer as well.
Im new at messing with RAM timings, so its possible im missing some setting to get it stable.
Thanks again
