Title: X58A-UD3R downclocking RAM [Plz read!]
Post by: Lebon14 on April 22, 2011, 05:50:52 am
Hi!
Back in late October 2010, I built myself a nice Core i7 machine with a Gigabyte X58A UD3R and triple channel Corsair XMS3 RAM clocked at 1333MHz (9-9-9-24).
Here is the kit I bought :

But looking in my BIOS, it's running at 1066MHz and 8-8-8-20, 1.5v.  Is there a way to "overclock" the RAM so it runs at its factory settings (run them at 1333MHz, 9-9-9-24, 1.5v)?
Here are pictures of my settings :
Advanced Memory settings : http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c210/lebon14/DSCF1235Copier.jpg
M.I.T. Current Status : http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c210/lebon14/DSCF1239Copier.jpg

Note that I never overclock my computer. So I don't have any experience modifying those settings.

Help?

Yes, all you have to do is manually set the memory multiplier to x10 (Then also set Uncore to x20-22)

Then manually set the memory timings to what you want for each channel, you will need to set Dram Timing Selectable SPD to Expert to adjust the memory timings.

Thanks for the help.
I have to overclock my CPU to Uncore 20-22x to put my RAM @ 1333MHz?!
Anyway, where is the Uncore setting?

Hi

The Uncore setting can be found in the MIT section

Everything is setup and running at the supposed RAM timing.  Thanks for the help!
