Ddr3 1600 problem

[akzim2012]

i have kingston hyperx genesis (blue color) and i cant get it to post at 1600, reads 1333 in bios. I have an i7 2600 3.4 ghz, an intel dz68zv motherboard. How do i get it to 1600 like it says on the package?

SB only supports up to 1333. So you'll need to manually set your memory to 1600 on the bios.

i tried that and it still wont boot up.

 

[mikeangs2004]

Each module kit has been tested to run at DDR3-1600 at a low latency timing of 9-9-9-27 at 1.65V. The SPDs are programmed to JEDEC standard latency DDR3-1333 timing of 9-9-9 at 1.5V

So set it to that spec.

have mine at 9-9-9-24 1333 but still cant get 1600 at 9-9-9-27 at 1.65V.

In your bios in the memory settings, turn on xmp1 or extreme profile.

im guessing i need memory that a xmp profile because i dont seem to find xmp in bios.

intel DZ68ZV, also my memory dosent have an x at the end like blahblahblah/8GX mine just says /8G

akzim2012, did you try to set 1600 manual 1.65 v, and timings on auto? Or try 9-10-9-31

 

[kg4icg]

It should be #27 in your bios. if Extreme Memory profile isn't shown then you may be right.

havent triedd that out but will try...when setting it to 1600 i have to put in the timings manually

kg4icg, where is #27?

update: tried 9-10-9-31 1.65 and would not boot. not sure what to do.

 

[akzim2012]

still cant get it to 1600. Any other ideas because i cant think of any.
