Hey guys.
I've seen that similar issues have been discussed over and over before but the solution to my problem is nowhere to be found as far as I can see so here we go:
My specs:
Motherboard: MSI Z87-G45
CPU: Intel i5 4670K (OC to 4,3 Ghz atm)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2400Mhz 2x8GB sticks.
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
The problem:
If I try to up the sticks above 1333 Mhz my computer tries to start only to stop and boot with error message that my overclocking has failed.
What I've tried:
I've set the speed to 2400, 2133, 2000, 1866, 1600 and none has worked.
I've tried them with different voltage, ranging from 1.5v to 1.65v
I've tried using the XMP profile.
All ports work with 1333 Mhz, if I use Dimm 1+3 or 2+4.
All ports work individually with only one stick.
I can use the full speed of ONE stick, even 2400 Mhz (with confirmed speeds of 1199[x2] in CPU-z so we're all good there), but as soon as I go to dual channel it just won't do it. After noticing this I also checked the CPU-pins on the MB - are any of em bent? But nothing there, everything looks fine.
Tried to boot with them both manually unlinked/linked, both a no-go.
BIOS has been updated although it was some while ago.
I even tried to go with my CPU at stock speeds but same goes there. no difference.
I had the very same issue with my old MB and now this one again but I never cared that much since that was only a diff of 1333 to 1600 Mhz, and I couldn't bare to strain through it all but this time I don't wanna give up and since I've had the issue on 2 consecutive MBs I figure it must be a user-issue ;P
MB has support for the RAM, as far as I'm aware, and even speeds above the ones of these sticks have been tested for so I keep scratching my head and really want to get around this issue.
Any suggestions? What can I try that I haven't already?
Kind regards
Stefan
