Hi, I just bought a new system with the Gigabyte UD5 and the Corsair Dominator 6Gb Cl8 kit and a I7 920 D0 batch 3854B271.
Running Bios Version F7 which is the latest ..
Now the problem i am having is getting the ram stable @ 1600 Mhz. OCCT and LinX both crash on me in under 5 minutes when i run the ram @ 1600 mhz.
I have no problems with the ram set to 1333 Mhz and the machine seems to be stable even after 30 mins of OCCT or LinX.
I have tried with XMP enabled and disabled and it makes no difference at all to the stability at 1600 mhz. I still get crashes in under 5-6 mins. Nothing like this happens with the ram set to 1333mhz.
The settings i have for the ram are set manually to 1.65V and the Qpi to 1.36V and am not stable . I have NOT OVERCLOCKED the CPU at all.
Just trying to get the ram to run at 1600 mhz and i cant even seem to do that much.
My setting are Cl 8-8-8-24 2T @ 1600 mhz and i cant get stable.
Even tried QPI volts all the way up to 1.4V and still was not stable.
But what i did notice is that the UD5 is not picking up the correct timings for the Ram.
I would highly appreciate it if someone could give me the Sub Timings for my ram so that i can run it @ 1600mhz and get stable.
these are my current settings on the UD5 and i cant get stable with them..

Have checked the ram with memtest86+ and no errors so i dont think i have bad ram. And i dont think i have a bad Mobo either ,
because i can run the ram @1333 mhz stable on OCCT for 30 minutes no problem but i crash in under 5 minutes with my ram @ 1600 mhz
Thanks in advance for all the help guys and cheers
Hope i can get to the bottom of this...![]()
