I own 16GB of G.Skill Trident Z RGB 3200 MHz speed but have not been able to reach that frequency. I have an intel core i7 8700k that I have overclocked to 5.0Ghz at 1.345v, but when I go to overclock my memory, I cannot reach speeds faster than 2666 MHz. My motherboard is the ASUS z370 Maximus Hero AC/Wifi edition. I have read online that integrated memory controllers on motherboards might affect ram speeds. Is it just my motherboard that is limiting my speeds, or is there another factor here that I am missing. Also, I have my overclock profile set on XMP. Thanks

My six year old 3770K rig finally kicked the bucket so it's about time I upgraded. I'm keeping most of my old rig intact so all I need is a CPU, MoBo and RAM. Like most people it seems, I'm building a dual purpose system. Editing (adobe) and gaming. I'm trying to keep the cost as low as possible of course but expect to be spending somewhere in the vicinity of $1500. After researching CPUs I find myself leaning towards the Threadripper 1900X. It seems like a better offer than intel's similarly priced i7-7820X but I could be wrong. The motherboard I was looking at to go along with the 1900X is the MSI X399 GAMING PRO and 32GB of G.SKILL TridentZ RGB RAM. (Will I be able to control the RAMs lighting with that board?) So my question is, is Threadripper overkill considering I'm a film maker who's basically constantly editing? I don't use After Effects very often but would like to change that in the future.

Ok guys. A friend of mine recently bought and built his own PC with my help and wants to try overclocking. First off, specs. Ryzen 5 1600X ASRock B350 itx/ac G.Skill Aegis DDR4-3000 (16GBs) GTX 1070 500W PSU aaand other stuff His PC booted up just fine... everything worked until we enabled either XMP-Profiling or overclocked his 1600X. To be fair, his processor is "only" running at 3.8Ghz and we wanted to try to get the RAM to 3200Mhz. BUT As soon as we restarted from the BIOS, the PC would boot loop 3-6 times No idea why, after that it starts just fine. Also, I set his 1600X to 3.825Mhz at 1.3375V and in CPU-Z this shows up: Any ideas on how to fix either of those oddities?

I have 2 kits of 2x8gb dual channel 3600mhz g.skill ram (model F4-3600C17D-16GTZR) installed in my asus maximus ix hero motherboard with 4 dual channel slots for ram. But I've recently experienced 2 crashes, 1 bluescreen and 1 random loss of display. I'm pretty sure this is because I'm using 2 kits of 2x8gb ram instead of 1 kit of 4x8gb, so the timings arent configured for 2 kits to work together. Does this sound like something that could easily be fixed by reconfiguring the timings? If so, how can i do this? And what should i use for my configuration? If this ends up being a bit too complicated or less reliable than just 1 kit of 4x8, I'm probably just going to refund my 2nd kit while i can and live with 16gb for a while.

my G.Skill Trident Z RGB RAM is always switching to it's default rainbow effect. I always have to restart my PC when I want to switch the color because it's a bit broken and such. but the main problem and question is that can I save my applied settings? it's always reverting back to rainbow mode when I turn off my PC. maybe there is and my RAM is just messed up.

Hey, guys, I'm asking this question just to make sure before I make this purchase. I currently have in my ryzen build 16gb of - G.skill 3200 flare x and I need more memory and I wanted to add a little more RGB so i was looking at the the trident 3200 rgb. Could i not use two different sets of memory because of the different timings?

System Configuration: Motherboard: Asus Prime B350-Plus bios version 1002 CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 Memory: 16GB DDR4-3000 G.Skill F4-3000C16D-16GTZR GPU: Palit GTX 1060 3GB VBIOS: 86.06.11.00.48 Driver: Geforce 388.16 OS: Windows 10 x64 (16299.125) Ok I'll give a quick run up timeline wise until the problem started. Built the rig about two months ago and upon first boot DOCP would not work. No problem updated to bios version 1002 which addressed all the past problem with DDR4 compatibility. After flashing the bios the docp profile loaded up just fine and I had the Ryzen oc'ed to 3.7 and everything was stable after running some stress tests. Fast foward to yesterday. For reasons I wanted to turn off SMT to check performance on an application without the use of virtual threads. So I go into bios and disable smt and go to reboot. I got the dreaded triple flash on the keyboard lights (num lock, caps, scroll lock) and the system posted into safe mode. Uh oh I thought I guess turning off SMT isn't going to work so I go back in and enable it and reset again. Still flashing lights and posting back to safe mode. I'm panicking now so I restore the entire bios to optimized defaults. System boots up fine. I immediately open up cpu-z, gpu-z, hwinfo64 to run a check on all the numbers. It all looks good. So I reboot again into bios and set the exact same Ryzen OC and RAM DOCP settings I had before. Triple flash again. Fast forward 3 hours of me turning off and on settings to see what will post. Finally I narrowed it down to the ram. The system will post with any OC on the ryzen I enter but the RAM HAS TO BE set to auto to post @ 2133 with the non-oc timings of 15-16-16-16-36 1T. So I thought ok well I've read docp doesn't work for everyone and I'll just manually enter the xmp profile settings. Nothing worked. Then I did another simpler test to see what's going on so I defaulted all the ram timings to auto to wipe all my changes, did a reboot to make sure it does boot. Got into windows fine. Verified the default 15-16-16-16-36 1T timings and went back into bios and changed only one thing, manually set CL to 15 instead of having auto. This SHOULD work since that's what's been posting and verified in windows. NO POST, triple flash. Go back to bios and changed cL15--> auto. posts again just fine. So essentially what I've discovered is that if I manually enter ANY value into DRAM Timings, the system will not post even if the timing is what auto would have selected. Does anyone have any idea wtf is going on with my system? -
Hi there! I'm new to pc building and very close to being done purchasing everything for my first build. https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/chwr9W I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the ram I bought will work well with my cpu/board? Since pcpartpicker didn't detect any incompatibilities I went ahead and bought it but now I am having doubts...I am seeing posts of people that say they can't get the ram to max speed? What should I do? Thanks!!

rgb Pulling the trigger on Trident Z RGB Ram
DeadlyTitan posted a topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
So, its been 2 weeks and i have entered my vacation and i am getting pretty impatient cause the stupid ram i want is out of stock (Corsair Vengeance RGB, since i heard it have better compatibility with msi boards). I Decided that i do not want to waste my vacation just waiting for parts and just pull the trigger on the Trident Z RGB. May god help me if this combo does not work as i have an MSI Z370 krait gaming board, and i heard bad things about G.Skill refusing to play nice on non Asus boards. I just hope i do not end up bricking my ram. Please note that i am only referring to controlling the RGB part, not about ram being compatible with the board since its a DDR4 ram and it is compatible, but that is not the reason am worried .. When am buying an RGB ram i would like to control its RGB too without corrupting the SPD or bricking the Ram. All this makes me think, Is the RGB ram even worth it? or am i just better off buying an general ram. I mean i do like the flashy RGB stuff but not when they are ultra super buggy as they are right now, at least not at the risk of bricking the ram or corrupting its SPD's. So are they worth it? -
Help Overclocking RAM to 3200hz - (2 x 16GB)
SOcean posted a topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
I recently upgraded my RAM from these G.SKILL Ripjaws V (2 x 8GB) to these G.SKILL TridentZ (2 x 16GB). I've been trying to overclock the TridentZs but haven't been able to get past 2800MHz and stay stable. I haven't OC'd the CPU at the moment if that can be a contributing factor. Anyone have any suggestions for what I can do to reach 3200MHz?

Hello everyone, So I'm really torn right now. The Corsair K70 and G.Skill KM780R are what I'm looking at the moment. It should be noted that I don't really care about the fact Corsair's software offers more lighting customization. However, I am concerned about both Corsair and G.Skill's quality control and customer support pertaining to these keyboard. There's not quite as many positive reviews on the KM780R as there are on the K70 (though most negative reviews are about the software being limited at the moment). I also prefer the K70's design more, but it is lacking in features. The physical build quality of both keyboards seems to be on par. So what do you all think? All feedback is appreciated. Thank you!

I have some G.Skill Ripjaws DDR4 3200mhz ram on me, but I can't get it to go past 2933 in the BIOS. I'm using a Ryzen 5 1600 on an MSI B350 Tomahawk motherboard, any tips?

Hello Forum Users, I have 2x 8GB DDR3 memory sticks in my rig. One of my sticks went bad, so I got an RMA number from GSKILL. On the "Warranty" portion of G.Skill's site, it states "Include all modules of a memory kit for RMA. Memory kits are tested together to ensure compatibility. Compatibility is not guaranteed if a partial kit is returned." So I packaged up both memory sticks and shipped them out to GSKILL. Around 10 days later, I receive a package from GSKILL in the mail. I open it up, and only find 1x 8GB DDR3 stick! How could they mess this up? I clearly followed the direction to send both ram sticks and they only sent 1 back. Does anyone have any advice? If anyone knows a GSKILL tech support on this forum please share this post with them... I greatly appreciate it. Thanks -Matt

Hey guys wondering if maybe someone can shed some light a bunch of problems I’m having. First build I’ve done in many years. i just recently built a new gaming rig and went with Threadripper 1950X, ASUS Zenith extreme motherboard, G.Skill 3200MHZ Ram that’s been verified to work with that motherboard and a EK extreme water cooling kit. I’m using a EVGA 850P2 power supply, Corsair 900D case, EVGA 1080ti FTW3 Hybrid. Samsung 960 EVO M.2 drive for boot and a 2tb for storage. After putting it together and getting windows 10 installed I’ve been having nothing but issues. First when im in the bios and watching the voltage it will cycle up and down, it showed as high as 1.5v. The cpu speed was also cycling. I flashed the latest bios and installed latest drivers but when i installed the Ryzen Master tool it was showing a cpu speed of 4.00GHz but windows said it was at 4.68. I ran prime95 and it got up to 75 degrees at that setup. And Cinebench ran over 3300 score but seemed fine. Second it would only run the ram speed to 2133, changing it to 3200 in the bios it would post sometimes but will fail and revert back to 2133. After all this and installing/uninstalling numerous drivers I decided to do clean install of windows 10. After trying to format the SSD the windows install says it can’t install it. I’ve put in 2 other drives (ssd from working computer and normal hd) and it still won’t let me install. Says it can’t find the partition or some stupid error, was getting angry and fed up so I shut it down for now. I tried reformatting all the drives and still nothing. Now I’m stuck with $6K RGB light show that can’t do anything. Put in a support ticket with ASUS as well as I’m thinking it’s a motherboard issue. Not sure what to do next as I’m out of ideas. And i know the water loop isn’t the prettiest/ideal but it seems to work.

Hello people ! , i am currently upgrading my computer , i already own the SSD, HDD, GPU, CPU, PSU and the Case ! I need some ram and a mobo I plan on having the "opportunity" to overclock later on if system start to struggle on new game. Here is a list of what i have right now and what i choosed to buy as an upgrade . PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel - Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor (Purchased For $0.00) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master - Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($32.95 @ Vuugo) Motherboard: MSI - Z270-A PRO ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($130.00 @ Vuugo) Memory: G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($200.00) Video Card: MSI - GeForce GTX 1060 3GB 3GB GAMING Video Card (Purchased For $0.00) Total: $362.95 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2017-12-02 08:00 EST-0500 Is the mobo worth it ? And ATM the ram is 50$ off so that why i choosed those one. and also another question , is the ram compatible with the mobo ? *Price are in Canadian* -
Hey guys, I'm having some weird issues with my ram and my Mobo software. What's happening is that one of my dimms are not working entirely. I somehow got it to work 2 other times but that's it. I would like to find a way to have my Mobo lights work aswell as my ram

Sorry for posting so many questions about the ram but as you can see i am growing very very impatient. This time around i'll try to calm down and try to explain as clear as i can so i can get better help. Ram and motherboard are the 2 last pars i need to build my pc and i am stuck on them So please help. I want an rgb ram i had my eyes set on Corsair vengeance RGB since they had a wide range of compatibility but the thing is they are out of stock with no expected restock date available. Its soo frustrating like i already waited a month to get my CPU and GPU and now i am stuck on the Ram. Should have bought the ram when it was available .. So i am becoming desperate and very impatient as i have everything literally everything except the ram and motherboard. I have waited soo long (started buying parts in October, now its 31st December) So i decided to go with the G.Skill Trident Z RBG Ram which are available, but the thing is G.Skill is only compatible with Asus boards or so it was when it was launched. I have my eyes set on the MSI Z370 KRAIT GAMING, since i have a non K Chip this board should be okay and its got a pretty good power delivery and is feature set and comes with quiet a lot of accessories. I have looked everywhere and was unable to find a solid answer to my question. The question is Will the G. SKILL Trident Z RGB RAM be compatible with the MSI mystic light software ? and by compatible i mean can i control the RAM RGB's using MSI software ? I dont want to use 2 different software's cause there are plenty of ways that can go wrong (am absent minded so i will mess things up easily without knowing) like killing off the Ram kinda bad things. Or should i just suck it up and buy an Asus board which will work with the G.Skill RBG Ram (Asus Strix Z370-F to be specific) that comes with lesser Features and have fewer RGB on board and looks a lot less cooler and no accessories. I really like that MSI board cause it looks way too cool (personal preferences).

Ok so my system has I7 4790k 4.5ghz msi z97 gaming 5 Samsung - 850 EVO 250GB M.2 MSI geforce 1070ti 700 watt PS So what im trying to say is that my ram just died. It was an old set of Crucial ballistix sport ddr3-1600 16gb 2x8. The ram itself died i checked all the slots there all still working. so the plan is to buy Gskill trident x DDR3-2400 32gb 4x8 and im looking online and people are saying it wont work with 1.65 volts and others are saying it is fine but im sure the helpful people on here will help and i have no problem turning down the ram volts and speed if this setup will work and yes ik i should upgrade to ddr4 lol but this 4790k hasent let me down yet lmao https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3TbwM8 http://ram.userbenchmark.com/Compare/GSKILL-TridentX-DDR3-2400-C10-4x8GB-vs-Corsair-Vengeance-LPX-DDR4-2666-C16-2x8GB/m89345vs3545 thanks LTT forums btw -
which of these is better? the clock speed is same but the CAS LATENCY is different and the corsair ones have LED. which one has the best performance and speed?

Motherboard: MSI Z170A MPower Gaming Titanium CPU: i7 6700K Memory: G. Skill Ripjaws V 32GB 3200MHz (4 x 8) Failure to boot with XMP Profile enabled, even when manually overclocked. Double checked all the values and it still won't load at the rated speed. Defaults to 2133MHz and then works fine.

Hey guys, can anyone tell me, what SPD latency the RipJaws V DDR4 3200 MHz CL 14 16GB has? Model: F4-3200C14Q-64GVK Specs: http://www.gskill.com/en/product/f4-3200c14q-64gvk To explain: I am trying to decide, which one to get: The Corsair Vengeance LPX 2800 MHz CL 14 16GB (Model: CMK64GX4M4B2800C14 Specs: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/vengeance-lpx-64gb-4x16gb-ddr4-dram-2800mhz-c14-memory-kit-black-cmk64gx4m4b2800c14) or the afore mentioned RipJaws V DDR4 3200 MHz CL 14 16GB. I will have to run the RAM at either 2400 or 2666 MHz for now, since on a higher clock speed there would be issues concerning the M.2 attached Samsung 950 PRO SSD. That is why I would like to know the SPD latency of the RipJaws V. The Corsair states its own as 15-15-15-36 on the linked spec-sheet, which the G.Skill completely misses. So if anyone has the G.Skill F4-3200C14Q-64GVK, it would be very kind of you to check out the SPD latency. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, I would like to know if the G.Skill RipJaws V (Mindfactory (German)) with it's height of 42mm will fit the cooler i chose, namely the be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 (Mindfactory (German)). I heard in a video, that it has a RAM-clearance of 42mm, so I am not sure, if it fits. Can anyone tell me, if the RAM will fit? Maybe from your own experiences with that cooler? Thanks in advance!!!
