Hi all, Previously i'm using G.skill 4GB X2 at 1600mhz and by my luck I was able to get CORSAIR DOMINATOR 1866 8GB X2 very2 cheap from my friend and i try to install it at my system board which is ASUS P8z77-V-PRO and ran into few problems which is

1. When I put it in my board set it to XMP Profile ( Board detect 1866 mhz ) I always got Blue Screen Of Death frequently every few minutes. But when I set it to manually at 1333/1600/1800 the system is not having any problem. Is there anything that I actually have to configured to get use the ram at the recommended speed?

2. I'm using HYPER 212X for my Fan processor and it is in the way for my slot ram 1 so right now i'm using slot 2 and 4. Is there any effect using the slot 2 and 4 ? Will it be any issue of performance or stability?

3. Right now I set my ram to 1800mhz and already run Memtest for 1 whole days without any error and pass but will it effect the overall performance of my system ? When set to 1800 mhz does it mean my ram is still safe to use as i'm afraid that if the ram is suppose to run at recommend speed but it doesn't is there any chance it will damage the ram?

For your reference this is my model ram
CORSAIR DOMINATOR CMD16GX3M2A 1866C9
1.5 VOLTS
TIMING = 9 10 9 27



Thanks in advance

Raise the fan, just unclip it from the sides of the HS fins and remount it slightly higher, I've got Tridents under mine on my IB and RipJaws X under another 212 on my SB build

Should be fine on the DRAM at 1800 or 1866, no worries, I've got 32GB of 2400/10 Tridents w/ my 3570K at 4.7, been buzzing 24/7 since it was built, just before the 3570K release (got mine early)

2. I'm using HYPER 212X for my Fan processor and it is in the way for my slot ram 1 so right now i'm using slot 2 and 4. Is there any effect using the slot 2 and 4 ? Will it be any issue of performance or stability?

3. Right now I set my ram to 1800mhz and already run Memtest for 1 whole days without any error and pass but will it effect the overall performance of my system ? When set to 1800 mhz does it mean my ram is still safe to use as i'm afraid that if the ram is suppose to run at recommend speed but it doesn't is there any chance it will damage the ram?
