Hi, I have OCZ DDR3 1600 (PC 12800) RAM and an ASRock X58 Extreme Motherboard.
OCZ Ram
ASRock X58 Extreme
Question: My XMP Profile is NOT working in my BIOS. If I use the XMP profile, my computer completely locks up after a couple minutes and I am forced to set BIOS to default settings so I can use it again.
That being said, does anyone know what options to change in my BIOS in order to correctly set my RAM at 1600 instead of 1066? I know I have to change the timings, and I used CPU-Z to find out some info on the XMP timings. I heard I can just take that info and use it for my BIOS, but I am not sure what is what in my BIOS when I compare it to CPU-Z. I have attached an image of my CPU-Z result which displays the XMP settings. Can someone please tell me what these would look like in BIOS and what I have to change etc?
Thank you so much for your help, I would really like to solve this because I paid for 1600 RAM and right now its running at 1066! Looking forward to the responses!
Here is my CPU-Z showing the XMP profile:
