That and sometimes MB's will tend to undervolt the memory despite what the BIOS says. This is common with speeds above the native 1600mhz your CPU is rated for. With the XMP profile enabled, manually set your DIMM voltage to 1.55 and even possibly 1.6 if you have to. It's possible the SPD chip wasn't programed correctly, but that wont affect performance or the way the memory functions. If they are not, go ahead and manually change it. Usually it's BIOS update that cures the mis-decting issue(as far as the timing go) But check to see if they are set to 9-10-9-27 with XMP enabled. This ca often be solved with just a couple of BIOS tweaks.įirst and foremost,Do you have the latest BIOS for your MB? If not please go ahead and flash to latest stable version.įrom there make sure to load set up defaults and enable XMP.


Hi Raven, i don't believe this is defective.
