    On that Asus board you can increase the BCLK to 103 and thats about it..maybe 104 if your lucky.
    Now to get 3GHz in that system you need to toss out those 2620's, peel open your wallet and remove $3000.00+ and buy a pair of E5-2690's or remove almost $4000,00 and buy a pair of the top E5-2687W's..Now, have I totally rained on your parade?
    OK, got that, can't OC on that board at all.

    Now trying to run 8X8GB 2133MHz Kingston Predators (KHX21C11T2K216X), can't get POST higher than 1866MHz 12-12-12-30-2 1.65V a very similar module is listed in the QVL

    Any advice on settings that'll work?
