Maximus XI Extreme need help with bios

[SK8]

Crap it just gave a Error 22min in with this group of settings...

XMP1 4266MHz
Dram voltage 1.45
CPU VCCIO Voltage 1.325v
CPU System Agent Voltage 1.265v
Dram timing control 18-18-18-38
Mode 1
Dram command rate set to 2N set dram current capability to 130%


this group of settings gave error 2hr 31 min

I did try this on old bios 805 did not work no idea why, next time in bios I will try again on this bios. BTW I am way more happy on the old bios 602 seems way more stable to me. Now I can see why you stayed with it.

Yes...bios 605 seems to be more stable...
Just adjust the IO back up to 1.275v....now try lowering the SA to 1.315v....don't want to raise it unless necessary

If this errors...increase the SA voltage to 1.33v...up from the previous 1.325 v

There are still some options if we can't dial this in....(1) go manual vs XMP....(2) test each stick individually...see if one is cause of the error...(3) try dual sticks vs quad...(4) set frequency @ 4133mhz with set timings....see the stability @ that given frequency....Love the challenge !! ... If memory serves me correct...read another post where another member was having issues with same quad kit ram with the Extreme XI

Set AI Tuner to Manual vs XMP....set IO to 1.275v...set SA to 1.325v and dram voltage to 1.45v....dram capability to 130%...in dram timing select Mode 1 and set timings to 18-18-18-38-2N....I know it can be frustrating...but slow and steady will win to race...lol
