Everytime i set the XMP profile in the BIOS of my newly bought "Asus Z97-AR" i get bluescreens whenever Windows is booting. I've heard that this can be a problem with Asus boards and som memory brands. Instead of have them set to Auto (where they run in 1333MHz) i've decided to try and set their frequency, timings and voltage manually. Because i've just upgraded from a LGA775 based system i'm not familiar with the new Asus UEFI though. I would be a very happy camper if someone could help me with what, and to what. options i should change in the BIOS if i would like to set frequency, timings and voltage of my ram modules manually. These are the ones i got:

Try setting the ram to stock timings and the frequency to 800mhz. I cant remember exactly how it all works, but I know that in cpu-z if your ram is running at 1600mhz, the number you should see in there is 800mhz.

I've got the latest BIOS (v.2601) installed, the CPU is a 4690K (for a full system spec look in my signature). Whn it comes to drivers i've chosen to not install the ones for the intergrated Graphics chip though. By the way, i'm sorry i voted "-1" on you answer, it was not my intention. I wrote from my iphone and tried to look for a quote button and accidently hit the down button and now i can't change it back.
