c1e and eist will throttle/reduce cpu speed when idle but give you full power when under load,i have them enabled too it saves heat and power when cpu isnt doing much

So Warren your suggestion is to have the memory multiplier enabled right so that I could set it manually from the list? I would like to go to 3.8, but not sure how? Cuz whenever I raised the voltage by 0.5v, my system just kept rebooting, and I was unable to get into the bios menu.

Do ya think it is good to raise the CPU ratio or the CPU multiplier? Have ya guys ever tried to manipulate the QPI?

what you mean 0.5v?cant you raise cpu voltage without it looping? for 3.8ghz all you need to change is ram timings/multi set cpu voltage to normal setting/qpi v to 1.30000 and ram v to 1.66,set system performance enhance to standard,,my cpu multi is locked at 21 you can raise cpu multi whatever is best for u

On my GA-X58A-UD3R rev 1 mobo I have Kingston HyperX and Kingston had me underclock mine to 10-10-10-30-T1
All has been stable for me.

Sounds terrible for performance!!

No way you should need to use those timings, sounds like you are not using the right QPI/Vtt, dram voltage, or Uncore values.

I have to agree with you there.. i bought this machine and they had to switch ram due to being out of the Corasair dominator. I researched it and it says this ram is for OLDER then X58 motherboards. According to Kingston they say it will work, "Sure it does" but it don't work worth a poop for OC'n.
I don't have the fund for now to replace it but it is stable for now at this setting. I did increase the Dram Voltage to 1.7v in the bios everything else auto 10-10-10-30-T1
I havent fooled witht he QPI/VTT or the Uncore values yet.

I open to suggestions.

Kingston is not really the greatest overclocker to begin with, maybe the 2000Mhz kits not sure?

Ahh, if you are not setting uncore and Especially QPI/Vtt this may be the only problem, set your own QPI/Vtt and see if you can then use better timings. Try 1.3-1.375 for 1600Mhz
