i have had this ram for around 2 weeks now and it supports up to 2400mhz..
my motherboard supports, 2800+oc/2400/2133+oc/1866/1600/1333/1066.
so it should work at 2400mhz. i have it clocked at 2000mhz and it works fine.
im my bios im using a xmp profile and volts on auto.

This threads been out for a while but I noticed it hadn't be responded to. Have you figured out a fix yet? If not:

What is your RAM voltage showing as? What CPU do you have, and is it overclocked at all? You might need to bump your voltage and/or apply a slight overclock to your CPU to get it to 2400. I'm assuming that you have your mobo BIOS properly update.

I have mostly the same problem but worse,
Bought 4GBx4 G.skill Sniper 2400mhz and it BSOD me when high load of RAM.
Turn latency auto, frequency to 1600 Mhz, Voltage at 1.65v, it works fine. Anything further will result BSOD.
Running Asus Z97 Deluxe, I7-4790k 4.0g (it's always 4.1 even I turn voltage to auto)

Would like to know if the OP solved his problem yet and how.

Have you tried MemTest or any other memory checker? If not, I'd start there running at least a full cycle with your RAM set at 2400 (XMP profile). If you don't get any errors there, then you can start tweaking the CPU clock. The sticks SHOULD run at their rated speed with only XMP enabled, without any additional tweaks, but reality is that even high-quality components can be finicky. It's possible that you've got a bad stick in the batch.

I didn't try Memtest86+, I did a windows built-in memory check(no error) and use Prime95 run Blend.
And it doesn't last longer than 5 mins in all frequency under 2400mhz except for 1600mhz.
I had x.m.p enabled at the first place under the DOCP section of BIOS. Just turn in to profile# means enable right? everything else is auto.

I did not over clock anything. I never touched anything in bios until I found my RAM problem. I have no idea why it is 4.1Ghz instead of 4.0Ghz. Voltage is by default. Temperature of CPU looks fine. Full load stabilize at 70c. Only one or two core will somehow hit 75c for a few seconds and drops back to 70c
