Hello, firstly I will state my components

Mobo: MSI Z97-G45
CPU: Intel i5-4690k
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2133 MHz)
- https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16...

So I have had minimal success in ocing my ram. I have been trying to go from 2133 MHz to 2400 MHz and be able to game and such. So far I have been able to clock my ram to 2400, but everytime I go to launch up a game it crashes (BF1 in my case specifically). I am unsure what's wrong with the OC I have atm.

OC Currently:
Voltage - 1.65
CL 11
freq - 2400

Windows is running stable as well is start up. I am on 2400 as I'm typing this, but games seem to crash.
 
Solution
Try bumping the DRAM Voltage a bit more to 1.66 ~ 1.67 V.

If still no good, then try changing Command Rate to 2T or 3T.

If still no good, the ease off principal memory timings by one step or so.
