H170 Pro Gaming DDR4 2400 Mhz

[JohanNL]

I have a ASUS H170 PRO Gaming MB; intel i5-6500; and Corsair 16GB DDR4 2400mhz ( CMK16GX4M2A2400C14R) RAM. on the ASUS site QVL this memory is tested en ok with this motherboard.
It wil only run on 2133 MHz i tried diferend kind of setting and also create a XMP profile. The system wont start and gets back to the 2133 Mhz setting.

Can i solve this problem or is somting rong with the RAM?

Not sure if that board supports XMP, but try the RAM in slots A1 and B1. The manual is wrong on RAM placement.

Edit. It does support XMP. You might also try updating to the latest Bios.

You won't be able to do that I think, and I've tried. The maximum of the H170 pro gaming is 2133mhz. If you push it for 2400mhz it will be fine but once restarted you'll be prompted that the OC have failed.
