question about my ram

gTX660player · Jan 23, 2014

dl'd cpu z and I have 1866 ram, and it's currently running at 668.9 * 2 and curious on how I can make it run at it's correct speeds

also is it safe to check for updates for bios and stuff using cpu z?

If Intel, go into BIOS and enable XMP (profile 1) if AMD look for DOCP, EOCP or XMP and enable it then select 1866 and should set things up for you, any problems let us know mobo, CPU and the model number of the DRAM

I have a asus m5a97 le r2.0, about to google how to get to bios and try it out. thanks!

I went to the bios and saw dram timing and dram something else. the main menu shows it's running at 1333. I was too scared to mess with it. Wanted to make sure I knew what I was doing.

saw this post in another thread

Change Memory Frequency from [Auto] to [DDR3-1600MHz] (Section 3.4.5)

Adjust first four settings in DRAM Timing Control (Section 3.4.11)
Starting with CAS Latency, set to 9-9-9-27

Save and Exit BIOS.

any opinions on this? is this all I would need to do?

I appreciate any help I can get! thanks!

Look for the setting I mentioned earlier that automates the setup of the DRAM else can do manually as you found, though you would set freq to 1866 and the timings to to the spec timings on the DRAM

is there a image or video showing this? -_- sorry I'm kind of a dumbass lol don't want to screw things up

Tradesman1 · Jan 23, 2014

Just go into BIOS, the advanced/Tweaker type page and look for XMP, DOCP or EOCP and enable it, then there should be a setting near it to enter the profile of freq

gTX660player · Jan 24, 2014

Either I'm a complete idiot/blind or something else, but I couldn't see any of those 3. I even wrote them down on a notepad before restarting so I wouldn't forget.

ugh! I saw dram timing and I think dram "driving"? I might be wrong, I saw those two below the OC settings.

gTX660player · Jan 24, 2014

Should I click on the dram timing or dram w/e the other thing is to get into those settings you talked about? I don't see em>_>

Tradesman1 · Jan 24, 2014

Can set them up manually, if no joy, get back to me and I'll pull out a manual and see what I can find for you

gTX660player · Jan 24, 2014

I found it, I had to go to a doce profile or w/e and change it to 1866. Now it shows it's running 936 per a stick so yay! lol thanks for the help!

gTX660player · Jan 24, 2014

I got a random blue screen while dling asus utilites and stuff..I hope I don't ruin my computer

edit: I went back to bios, went out of the doce or w/e mode it is and just set my freq w/o that mode and hopefully i'll be fine...hope someone can give me some insight on this and I don't mess nothing up.

Raise the CPU/NB voltage about + 0.06

gTX660player · Jan 24, 2014

I put it on the correct speeds and no blue screen on dayz for a hour. hope it's fixed! will give you guys a update tomorrow and hope all goes well.
