I had thought the system was stable, but random freezes suggest otherwise. I'm trying to get a kit of 32 gb ram stable at 3,000 mhz on the 100 strap. I know 125 is the preferred strap for 3k ram, but the 100 strap is so close to being stable, and it doesn't mess with everything else. I'm experiencing random freezes basically, where I could run ram stability tests for hours usually passing.
Sometimes I can run HCI memtest to 400% on 16 instances and Google's stressapptest for an hour without any errors, and other times it errors out towards the end of the run.
Current specs:
5960X
Base Clock: 100
Uncore Multiplier: 43
Core Multiplier: 46Ram frequency: 3000
CAS: 15
RAS to CAS delay: 15
RAS pre time: 15
RAS ACT time: 35
Command Rate: 2T
DRam Voltage: 1.35
System Agent: 0.98
I've tried system agent from 0.96 to 0.98, and I still get the random freezes at all settings. Should I try bumping DRam voltage up to 1.4? I can't seem to get 3200 stable, I've heard that frequency works better on the 100 strap.
