if this is your ram you should manually input the voltage to 1.65V @1600MHz

it could be incompatible or a voltage issue?

I'm not sure, why don't you just change the RAM frequency to 1600 in the BIOS than you don't have to worry about it anymore

I am good at computer

I'm guessing you have tried changing your bios settings?

just switch it to 1600 in the bios.

if this is your ram you should manually input the voltage to 1.65V @1600MHz

Yup that is my ram, i will try that and report back. thanks! I am also going to change the timings to what it says aswell just to be sure

Ok so the timings were what they were supposed to be automatically, the voltage however was auto set at 1.5 and is now at 1.65. Anyone know why it wouldnt detect the proper speed? But either way it is at that now and I will now test in prime to see if it will crash.

who knows and it doesnt matter.

 

whats important is that you can get your factory settings by manually inputing the values.

Well my cpu is not stock and im running prime now been about 10 minutes, It would have crashed before this so I am gonna say it is safe. Thanks for the assistance! Muchly appreciated!

when you first post the motherboard is going to run the ram at a safe speed, almost everytime you post witha new system it'll read the mem at 1333 usually at 1.5v.

Well That would make sense considering my machine booted like that for 6 months, My main concern before posting was why was it unstable. but I now know it was because the auto voltge was to low for the stock speed!

man, it boots at 1333 (a safe speed) until you change the settings in the bios via xmp profiles or manually.  Your board doesn't auto correct itself.  As for 1.65v ram you gotta watch out for what your dimms on your mobo are rated for, for most boards 1.5 is the standard, but your board has a few 1.65v kits on the qvl. Its typically better to get lower voltage mem but kingston has a lot of 1.65 kits and they still worked fine after you take a few seconds in the bios.  And you initially didnt say anything about instability you just said it is being read at 1333mHz which as I said, is completely normal.  You just need to take all of a minute to fix that, setting manual frequency, voltage and timing.
