Hello,

I've just bought an Z170 extreme4 board with an 6400 cpu and 8GB crucial ram 2400mhz.
I really dont know what iam doing wrong or why it aint working.

I updated the bios to the latest version 2.4.
Changed the BLCK to 125 set memory profile, profile_1 wich is 2400mhz everything else stock.
Save&exit > no boot

I shutdown the system press it on again it boots but in some sort of safe mode so i can enter the bios and change the values. I noticed the system target memory speed is set to 3000 why?

Ive tried different voltages/blck clocks but always somehow the memory speeds seems to end up higher then the value i put it on. Do i miss something? i think the system fails because of the ram speed.

Anyone?

You need BIOS version 2.43 beta which can be found here if you are using a Z170 Extreme4. It is under the Beta Zone section on your product page.

Tried even a BLCK of 103 and it didnt boot...
Memory can be overclocked as i just tried, 2600mhz is no problem at all but once the blck is touched > no boot, so it cannot be a memory problem.

Sorry for the hold.. sure no problem.
Right now i have it on 4.2 (still testing) ram on 2700.
I did have some bsods/freezes and didnt know if it was my ram or cpu oc.

Ram right now stable from 2400 16-16-16-39 to 2700 14-14-14-36 on 1.3v
6400Tongue on 4.2 with 1.35 and still testing so far stable, will try increasing clock speed in the next days.

http://valid.x86.fr/lh4xbr 4.2Ghz stable with 1.35v
http://valid.x86.fr/u6q138 4.45Ghz but i know it aint stable on 1.35v

As i dont want to put more then 1.35v i might reach 4.3/4.4 :)
Many thanks or the beta bios btw !
