Please post the exact part-number and/or link to your RAM. Also, please post the exact MOBO {there are several Maximus Extreme MOBOs lines}.

Asus Maximus extreme intel x38 DDr3
the 1333mhz ram i have now in the box is Corsair cm3x2048-1333c9dhx

First, your RAM {cm3x2048-1333c9dhx} doesn't appear in either list.

I would set everything Manually, Speed, CAS, and timings. What settings are you using in the BIOS? {I have to leave for a couple of hours}.
