New Corsair Memory - Degrading Performance - OC?


Recommended Posts

I went full RGB.. I bought a Corsair 1000D, New Watercooling, all Corsair LL series fans, bought some RGB LED strips and topped it off with 64GB of RGB memory.

 

Hardware Changed:

Corsair Dominator DDR4 3000 (32GB)

to

Corsair Vengence Pro DDR4 3200 (64GB, had to fill all the slots for ultimate RGB)

 

The issue: I'm getting decent frame drops in games.. 100+FPS > 70FPS. This only started to happen with the new RAM

 

Corsair Dominator DDR4 3000 Specs (Four Slots used)

Tested Latency

15-17-17-35

SPD Latency

15-15-15-36

Tested Speed 

3000MHz

SPD Speed

2133MHz

 

Corsair Vengence Pro DDR4 3200 Specs (All Eight Slots used)

Tested Latency

16-18-18-36

SPD Latency 

15-15-15-36

Tested Speed

3200MHz

SPD Speed

2133MHz

 

Other Hardware:

Asus Sabertooth TUF X99

Intel i7 5820K (OCed to 4.6Ghz)

SLI EVGA Geforce 1070 SC

 

Can anyone think of a reason why the new memory would degrade gameplay like this?

I think you are undervolting your RAM. Your board only does 3000 O.C. MAX, not 3200.

 

I do not know if a BIOS upgrade will fix this.

Thanks. There is a beta update I can do.. no change log.. so that may be fun. When I set the memory to 1.35 two sticks won't "light up". Also, when I force "3000" the computer won't boot.. Also, memory only running in single channel mode.. :(

After RTFM, I have come to t he conclusion that it is a memory configuration limitation. My motherboard won't do 8 Dimms at 3200 or 3000.. The only speed I can get is 2400.. but I now have Quad Channel instead of SIngle Channel after tweaking the bios. I forced 2400 and bumped the voltage to 1.35.
