Hi guys,
My 5820k is running at 4.5ghz with 1.23v, everything seems okay. The RAM is set to 2400mhz, but when I try to push it higher and use one of the XMP profiles (2800 or 3000), it fails in Aida within seconds. Should I adjust the voltages? The RAM is also using its default timings. i7 5820k
Asus x99 deluxe
H110i
16gb quad channel Corsair 2800mhz
2x R9 290
Corsair HX1000

Because you're staying within the memory kit's limits, the CPU's IMC—normally rated at 2133—is probably the main issue. You could improve performance by raising the system agent voltage. Begin with about .95v and adjust gradually, keeping it under 1.25.
