You have two Corsair LX Vengeance 8GB RAM systems running at 3200MHz CL16. They’re using the default timings: 16-18-18-36-54. Decide which setting you want to adjust and lower it accordingly. If you're unsure, Samsung B-Die might have some guidance.

You would need to turn off XMP initially, then proceed to advanced settings (OC) and fine-tune the parameters in small steps. After each adjustment, run a 24-hour load test to ensure stability. Be aware that excessive changes might damage RAM modules. First try raising the clock speed before altering timing unless you're experienced. Check OC outcomes from other users for this memory type. Also consider modifying the voltage; if unsure, opt for a different memory package.

You don’t need to turn it off; you can adjust it manually using the docp tool. The numbers in the bios were 16-16-16-36—could be a pattern or a mistake? I’m curious about what you’re trying to test.

DOCP OC combined with memory timing adjustments. Hope this brings stability in the long run. Those settings might work, but don’t jump to 16-16-16 right away. I’ve noticed some users achieve stability at 16-16-18 after tweaking the voltage on Corsair DIMMs. Outcomes will vary based on your chips, CPU, and motherboard. If you manage to lock in 16-16-16-36 without changing clock speed or voltage, you’re in for great modules. Good luck!

Explore numerous videos and read various guides. Regardless of whether they cover DDR2, DDR3 or DDR4, the core idea remains consistent. You'll need to do extensive technical research to grasp what you're altering and its effects. I don’t have a ready how-to document, but YouTube has detailed explanations. Also, use Google to look up Corsair LPX DDR4 timings for insight into what performs well and what doesn’t. Keep checking stability after each change—just because a game runs doesn’t guarantee it’s stable.

That's a bit of a joke—probably not worth it!

Ignoring timing and focusing on frequency like 3600MHz would change the approach, emphasizing voltage characteristics more.

Adjusting frequency becomes simpler; however, you might eventually need to raise timings. Initially, slightly boost the RAM voltage for stability. If that fails, the BIOS could reset or the system won't boot immediately, requiring a CMOS reset. Consider starting with 3466 as a jump. Once stable, proceed upward. When increasing voltage, take the smallest possible step until stability returns.
