    Hi,

    I made this topic to ask if its possible to get my ram speeds at 2133 without to reset cmos and have a risk of breaking of the cmos battery connector. (yes, its very hard to remove it without pulling it off)

    In the picture below I have intel XTU running and I know some settings for 2133 but there are 6 settings of which I don't know what they need to be or if they have to be changed at all.
    Cpu-z only shows the basic value's. I am running the Prema version 2 bios mod which enables intel XTU settings :).

    Thanks in advance!

    Those SPD are not accurate, the reader is not quite getting it right, it's all overclocking to go higher so it's down to the chips.

    Oh, I thought the spd speeds were supported by the modules heh..
    Oh well maybe I will someday try it when I don't have to use the notebook every day any more.

    I have already tried a latency at 11 but that required a cmos reset.. (saw someone with an alienware that used those speeds but with different modules).

    Update:
    Okay I can confirm that 2133mhz does not work!
    Tried 13/13/13/38 timings and it got a BSOD right after the post.

    Not many ivy based machines would run at 2133mhz even if the ram was capable.
