Heyo! I've been reading a bit and I'm kinda disappointed, it turns out my RAM may not be compatible at the speeds I bought it for?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820232275
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3333 (PC4 26600) Intel Z170 Platform Desktop Memory Model F4-3333C16D-32GVR

I got that RAM because the specs said, I believe, the mobo supported up to 3333?

I've heard some people say to up the voltage on the ram/CPU (which is Turbo Boosted to 4.2ghz) so it wil work -- where do I do that?

Thanks for any help!


Wow. Me bad. Sorry for the late reply.

Unfortunately G.Skill doesn't show your F4-3333C16D-32GVR kit as compatible with your motherboard. They are very very good of listing what sticks/kits will work on what motherboards.

See the below link for what G.Skill themselves have tested and guarantee compatible with your Z170 Pro4S.

Also, it should be mentioned that with a compatible high speed kit, that in and of itself doesn't guarantee you'll be able to run the sticks at their rated speed. ie: The silicon lottery and the kahunas to push serious voltage into a few sections of your board. Never mind a worthy cooler and fans to cool said voltages away from various components of the motherboard.

Your memory does not appear on the memory support list for your motherboard. Can you return it for a model on the list?
