Hello folks, I recently bought four sticks of OCZ Reaper memory. When I first got it, I went into my bios and (Asus M2N SLI Deluxe Mobo) selected 1066 MHz option for my memory. I came to realize that I had to increase the voltage to 2.35 in order for it to run stably. The manufacture suggests that it only run at 2.1 Volts. I figured that maybe a bios update would help get the volts down, so i used the Asus update program which supposedly updates your bios without logging out of windows.
I was warned to not screw with bios updates, I should have listened...
Anyways, after the update, I noticed that there was no option in the bios to set my memory to 1066 MHz. The highest it goes is 800 MHz. It would sure be a waste of money and potential gaming power to not unleash its full potential. I even reset the CMOS and updated the bios with later versions I also put in my old memory to see if the system would detect some new hardware or something.... Still, no option for 1066MHz.
Any suggestions?
