Hey guys, great server btw!  ;)

I built a new pc last week with fx6300,7770 super OC, 4GB Kingston Genesis 1600 ram in a Gigabyte 970a-ds3p motherboard.

The ram does not seem to work as it should, have tried setting it to XMP profile which is 9-9-9-24 @ 1600mhz but it benches about half as fast as it should be in passmark.

Anyone of you know if this ram is compatible with AMD chipset or not? I looked on their site and it only mentions Intel in the blurb about this particular module set. It runs at 1.5v normally so should work ok. But the XMP profile is set to 1.65 volts which im guessing is intel standard (never had an intel build).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can still return it to amazon if I have to.

EDIT: Just found an update for my bios on gigabytes website. Version F2f. The only notes are that it is supposed to fix memory compatibility. It makes it worse! :p

Some numbers:
Read uncached = 6518 MB/s - Write = 4917 MB/s  --- Bios F1 with XMP enabled
Read uncached = 6252 MB/s - Write = 4650 MB/s  --- Bios F2f with XMP enabled

Should be like this:
Read uncached =  13576 MB/s - Write 8437 MB/s  --- From passmark baseline for these modules.

I just found on their website: "1.7v–1.95v voltage range for dual channel applications
                                                                  for AMD based systems and Intel chipsets older than X58 "

Take a look on their datasheet maybe you can get something useful from there or use the technical support
I have no clue about those things but it seems that something went wrong.

Good luck with it though...

Says 1.5v here, where did you see 1.7v+?

Wow I totally missed that, I swear that page changes everytime I look at it.

Decided to solve the issue completely by buying some crucial ram. Ballistix tactical tracers to be precise  :D

Borrowing 8gb of corsair vengeance until they get here. Wow this stuff is fast!
