Over a month ago I made a post about my memory causing random BSOD when running in an X.M.P profile. I got one response but it was of no help and the original thread kinda died. I have linked the original thread here: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2191611/patriot-viper-2133mhz-causing-bsod.html Hopefully someone can help me out.

What are your other specs? you may need to lower the speed, increase the voltage or change the timings for it to be compatible with your other components. 
Just noticed you had the specs in the other post, and people have already given you suggestions. So I'm not sure sorry

Ya...he suggested increasing my voltage but by default my voltage is already above what he suggested :/...thanks anyway.
That's okay. Make sure the timings are the same as what Patriot recommend, and if that doesn't work, increase them slightly (by one) and decrease the speed to something like 1866MHz and see it that helps.

So I went into my BIOS and looked at the timing. According to the patriot website when running X.M.P the timing should be 11-11-11-30 which is what the automatic configuration is when I set my memory to X.M.P so I'm not sure what to do about that. As far as running the memory at a lower clock like 1866MHz I can't change it. The clock is set to auto based on the profile and whenever I click on it to change it unlike everything else I don't get an option. It's locked on auto.

Turn XMP off and try again, it may unlock the clock speed.
If I use XMP with my RAM I get BSODs. I had to manually set my timings to slightly higher than what they were rated at and I no longer have any issues.

Interesting...I'll have to try that. My PC works fine with X.M.P off. It always has I just wanted to run my memory at the specified clock. I'll try the timing thing just to see if it works.

I'd definitely recommend leaving XMP off then. You can manually set the speeds as high as they will go without getting BSODs that way.

This brings me to another issue. I can't figure out how to set the clock manually. In my advanced memory settings it's set to auto and it won't let me change it.
Edit: I went into my BIOS and poked around. All of my frequency settings are locked for both APU and memory alike. I feel like I'm missing something.

Did you ever try setting the CPU/NB voltage to 1.25 as was suggested...you brought up the CPU voltgae which is totally separate from CPU/NB or NB - that is what needs to go up, it's the MC (memory controllers) voltage

Can you change any of the values at all, even temporarily? It sounds silly but you may be pressing the wrong buttons to try and change them. I have to use - and + (+ being shift and =) to change anything using my MSI board.

Well with all the other options(like X.M.P or timing) I can either double click or when highlighted press enter and it'll bring up a menu of different options however it won't do that for these. I'll try doing some other means of changing it.

HAahah! I had that issue too, don't worry! Glad I could help you out with that one ;D now you can try all the other things that we have suggested. Good luck

I'll keep you guys posted on my results haha. Thanks!
So I need a bit more help. I've looked everywhere in my BIOS but could not find my current NB voltage. As far as adjusting it I can only adjust it in increments but it gives me the value in a +0.xxxV format with +0.300V being the max. I don't know what the default voltage is nor how to find it so I don't know what value would be around 1.25

I took it up to +0.126 since the increment is +0.006. I'll let you know if it works since the crashes were random and the memory did run on X.M.P for some time before causing a BSOD. It generally did it while running games so I'll keep you posted.

Did you turn XMP off and adjust the timings and frequency as I suggested? I think you should try that before changing anything else.

That's what I'm doing now. XMP off at 2133 but the timings are 12-12-12-32 instead of 11-11-11-30. So far so good but it was never predictable before so we'll see what happens.
