Hi!
I'm having troubles with my ram. I bought Corsair Vengeance 1866MHz ram. My computer won't start posting if i set it to 1866Mhz. I have Asus Sabertooth 990Fx r2.0 and Amd Fx 8350 at 4.8GHz. Whats the problem?

Thanks, Henri

Love it! Been running at 46 24/7 and just picked up a pair of 780s last week and while playing with them have moved it up to 4.7, at 4.6 idle averages about 32C, at 4.7 it's up to 36 or so, still playing with voltages there

 


Excellent. Any RAM space issue. I'm considering to buy either Noctua NH-U14S or CM GTS V8 but don't want to compromise on my beautiful Corsair Dominator Platinum 32GB.

Think they will, just barely, might want the first two in before you mount the GTS, I'm running the 32GB of Tridents which are almost a mm shorter and they fit fine, but I've taken to leaving the fin off the stick in slot 1 because I change out DRAM a lot on my Haswell to test other sticks, don't think they will fit with the Noctua though, but not positive
 


They will work with Noctua NH-U14S in Pull config not in Push and not with NH-14D beast.
