    Dram strength guidelines?

    Hi I recently bought some g.skill sniper 2133 ram, and was looking to do some overclocking with it. I was wondering if there was a list or webpage with suggestions for dram strength settings? I don't really know what direction to go. I can get the computer to boot into window are 2133 but isn't even close to being stable. I have done some reading and it was suggested to adjust strength setting before going crazy with voltage. I have adjusted my cpu to nb up to 1.3v and that seemed to help some. I know it amd and it asking a lot to run the ram that fast, but I figured I would try. System specs below.

    1100t
    Asus crosshair V
    G. Skill sniper ddr3 2133, don't remember the exact p/n but it is the lower timing version.

    Thanks for look, Adam

    AUTO default settings will probably be best with that motherboard.

    Thank you

    Do you have CPU-NB Frequency at 2400MHz?

    That is necessary for optimal performance (for that CPU).

    I am just finishing up with the ram, I have booted the computer with the cpu-nb at 3200mhz but it won't be stable. I will try to work my way up to 28-3000mhz. Funny thing was i couldnt even get it to boot at 2200mhz, I looked at asus website and notice they had a bios update. figured what the heck, seems to alot more stable now then before, maybe the previous bios was corrupted a little bit? I don't know.

    Thank you fo taking the time to help, Adam
