Ive been having this problem for way too long, i've fiddled with the settings a lot, i even reset cmos today. I cant figure it out, i guess i'm missing something. What should i do to be able to turn on XMP so my ram would run at 1600mhz instead of 1333 and to have access to the cpu multiplier? When i first got this mobo, everything worked. I guess a bios update might have changed that.
 

MOBO : Z68-GD65(G3) - weird ass mobo, seems to have a mind of its own, resets settings when wants, sometimes just ignores them.

CPU : i5-2500k

RAM : Kingston Hyperx genisis 8gb (4x2gb) - 1600 MHz

 

BIOS settitngs:

I am probably blind or something, but anyways help is appreciated guys!

 

Things tried:

  • Setting ram freq. manually to 1600 MHz works only for first boot, then resets to auto for some reason;
  • Clearing cmos;

 

tl;dr

XMP option locked, multiplier locked, need to unlock, wat do.

set Dram Freq to Manual.

It works for the first boot. Windows shows that its 1600 MHz. But it just keeps setting it back to auto, thus every boot after the first one will be booting at 1333 MHz if i don't change it back before every boot.
