Hello!
I've been working all day and ready everything I can as I'm trying to get this new build set up. My specs are in my signature.
I'm using 2 8GB sticks or DDR3 RAM rated to 1866 MHz with timings of 9-10-9-28 at 1.5v. When I boot into UEFI on the first screen (Main) it shows two DDR3 sticks and says they are 1600 MHz. When I go to the OC Tweaker page I can select XMP 1.3 profile and it shows the 1866 MHz and correct timings and I lean the DRAM Frequency to AUTO (or I can select 1866, but it doesn't matter once I boot Windows). Seems good so far.
When I get into Windows CPU-Z and Speccy show my DRAM Frequency is 460 MHz (so 920 when I multiply by 2). Going back to the Main page of the UEFI shows the RAM at 920 MHz. And then in the OC Tweaker page the XMP 1.3 profile is still selected (and it shows the correct timings and 1866 MHz under it) but the DRAM Frequency is now set to 920 MHz (whether or not I selected AUTO or 1866 the first time). But now the choices of DRAM Frequency are numbers I don't even know (920, 1225, 1532, 1840...). I choose 1840 since it's close to 1866 but it doesn't seem to change anything once I get into Windows.
What to do?
Also, is there a way to reboot into UEFI? I'm used to BIOSes that when you choose save and exit reboot the computer and let you go back into BIOS. I wonder because when I change settings on the OC Tweaker page nothing seems to change on the Main page.
Help me! Thanks :)
Oh, and I forgot to mention, CPU-Z shows the timings at 9-10-9-28 when it's showing the frequency at 460 MHz.
