Hey all, just built my first PC yesterday not troubleshooting some problems. One of which would be that I set the memory in the BIOS to DOCP in order to get to the native frequency and timing of my RAM but when i tried to boot with these new settings, the system failed to post on multiple occasions until it entered the BIOS in safe mode and I reverted the changes made to the memory setting.

The 2x16GB version of this RAM kit is in the QVL list but I'm using the 2x8GB kit, didnt think it would be incompatible but did I guess wrong?

Currently running at 2133MHz, can't complain but would like to be able to get what I paid for. :(
 
Solution
Hi, Have you updated the board's BIOS? If yes, and still no go, I suggest leaving the RAM at default. No big difference in performance from increasing the frequency.
