I am currently running a 980X with 24gb of Kingston HyperX 1600Mhz. When I was on the P6X58D Premium I was able to run the ram at roughly 1750 Mhz rock stable. I could even push it well beyond that in normal every day use but not Prime95.
After upgrading to the Rampage III Extreme I cannot get the board to post with the ram at 1600Mhz for the life of me. I am currently running it at 1594 Mhz. I normally wouldnt split hairs in saying 1594 isn't 1600 but if I simply up the BCLK 1 more from 159 to 160 the board refuses to post at all.
Anyone seen anything like this with this much ram?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
