Hi
I set up the system with the following components:
Asus Z10PE-D8 WS Mainboard
Xeon E5-2620 V3 CPU x 2
ASUS Strix R9390X 8GB
Kingston 4 x 16GB Reg Ecc 2133Mhz Memory
500GB Samsung SSD
Win7Pro

I placed the PCI-E card in slot 5 (cpu2) and slot1 (cpu1). The 3D Markup shows the best performance in slot 5.
After some testing, the CPU reached a peak of 4100Mhz and remained stable at around 12% clock speed.
The memory stayed stuck at 1866, with no improvement observed.
The GPU is running smoothly at 1090Mhz.

In startup, nothing changed in the BIOS, anyone know why?
Any suggestions on adjusting memory or BIOS settings?
Looking forward to your advice and have a great day!

Anyone with any background on this mainboard?
As I mentioned earlier, the BIOS doesn't reflect any updates during post or within the BIOS itself. However, tests indicate a different outcome.
Memory remains consistent, and I'm eager to discover any explanation to correctly configure it in the BIOS.
I currently use two 16GB 2133Mhz modules in slots A1+B1, E1+F1. Some test programs claim a 4-way configuration, while others suggest a 2-way setup. To achieve four channels, do all slots need to be active?
Wishing everyone a pleasant weekend.
You're aware that this CPU supports memory speeds up to 1866 MHz. Based on my experience, I can only successfully overclock it to around 1936.4 MHz. Beyond that, no changes occur.
Additionally, I'm curious about your method for overclocking the 2620v3 to 4.1 GHz. I can only reach up to 3321 MHz, which suggests only a minor adjustment...

Does anyone have any background on this mainboard? As I mentioned, the BIOS doesn't display any updates during post or inside the BIOS, but tests indicate different outcomes. The memory remains the same, and I'm hoping to get an explanation in the BIOS to figure out the correct method.
I currently use two 16GB 2133Mhz modules in slots A1+B1 and E1+F1. Some test programs claim it supports 4-way, while others say only 2-way. To enable 4-way, must every slot be active?
Wish everyone a pleasant weekend.

As I mentioned, the BIOS doesn<|pad|>, doesn’t reflect any updates during post or inside the BIOS, though tests indicate different outcomes.
Memory remains stable, and I’m eager to understand the correct approach in the BIOS.
Currently, I’ve installed 2x16GB at 2133Mhz in slots A1+B1, E1+F1. Some test programs claim 4-way access, others suggest 2-way. To achieve four channels, must every slot be active?
Wishing you all a pleasant weekend.
You’re right about the CPU supporting memory up to 1866Mhz. Based on my experience, I can only push the memory to around 1936.4Mhz. Beyond that, nothing changes.
I also need to know how you managed to overclock the 2620v3 to 4.1GHz. I can only reach up to 3321Mhz, which is just a minor boost—well under the threshold. Above that, the system fails to boot. Could you share your BIOS settings?
If you’re aiming for four channels, you’ll need to enable all eight RAM ports on the motherboard.
Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.

You are aware that this CPU can handle memory up to 1866 MHz. Based on my experience, I can only reach overclock the memory to 1936.4 MHz. Beyond that point nothing alters. Also, I’m curious about your method for boosting the 2620v3 to 4.1 GHz. You can only push it up to 3321 MHz, which suggests a modest increase of about 4%. Above this threshold, the system fails to boot. Could you please share your BIOS configuration?

If you’re aiming for four different approaches, it seems necessary to activate all eight RAM slots on the motherboard.

Looking forward to your response. Thanks,

You highlighted the clear CPU memory limit.
I use my mainboard futures to control clock speed, gradually increasing power for the CPU and memory bank, while monitoring the GPU. It seems this setup will likely not exceed 1866 MHz even at higher speeds. The system appears stable with the current default settings, but it’s hard to test further now.
Have a great week!

I also wanted to know how you managed to boost the 2620v3 to 4.1 GHz. I could only reach up to 3321 MHz, which suggests only a minor overclock. Above that, the system fails to boot. Could you please share your BIOS configuration?

If you're aiming for four different methods, it seems necessary to fully utilize all eight RAM ports on the motherboard.

Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.
M8, you highlighted the clear limitation on memory speed.
I typically use my mainboard futures to control the clock, gradually increasing power to both the CPU and memory bank, while monitoring the GPU. This approach likely allows it to display speeds higher than 1866 MHz even when clocked. I believe the system is stable with the default settings now, as testing for a higher speed feels impractical at the moment.
Have a great week.

I don't recall whether I saved the setup in BIOS right now, but since I'm using it at work now, I'll take a moment to verify again.

If you're aiming for four different configurations, you'll need to fill all eight RAM ports on the motherboard.

Looking forward to your reply. Thanks, m8. You highlighted the clear CPU memory limit, which I had overlooked. I use my mainboard futures to control the clock speed, gradually increasing power to the CPU and memory bank, while keeping GPU usage low. It seems this approach will likely show any speed up to 1866 MHz even when clocked higher. The system appears stable with the default settings now, as I'm not ready to test yet. Have a great week.
