Welcome to the forum ! 🙂

I had basicly the same problem with the same memory that you have and could never resolve the problem.
My advise, RMA the memory and check out the GSkill.

I just finished a system for a customer with the C-V-F-Z board and I used that same GSkill I linked to you with a AMD 1090T CPU and the memory hasn't missed a beat.
I've just found that Corsair memory for AMD systems haven't been that stable lately and that GSkill has been rock solid !

My Asus ROG Crosshair V Formula always ran just great with Kingston HyperX 16GB ddr3 1600MHz with using the AMD FX-8150.
Might want to check out Kingston memory but on 1866 MHz I actully never had problems with Kingston memory 🙂
Good luck!
