Unable to reach 2000mhz with 8GB Flares + 1090T + MSI 890FXA-GD70

[InSaiyanOne]

My current setup is:

AMD 1090T Hexacore CPU
MSI 890FXA-GD70 Motherboard
8GB - G.SKILL F3-16000CL8D-8GBFLS 2x4GB 2000 DDR3 Flares
HX850W Corsair PSU
H50 Corsair CPU cooler
EVGA 012-P3-1472-AR GTX 470 Superclocked 1280MB DDR5 Graphics Card

After testing to see where my board's limits were for overclocking my CPU I finally decided to go after the specified 1000mhz @ 8-9-8-24-1T from these $400 (at the time) flares.

I've tried multiple settings with adjustments to the voltages as well but when I get my ram to reach 2000 in the bios after saving it will not let me boot forcing me to go back to previous bios settings. I've even entered the info for the Flares manually into the DRAM area and also adjusted the DDR voltages.

Have there been known success stories with this Motherboard/RAM combo to date? If so, can I please get any possible settings for this BIOS please?

Thanks.

Last attempt I had these settings:
FSB = 250
Mult = 16x
HT = 2000
NB = 3000
CPU volt = 1.375
CPU/NB volt = 1.275
DDR volt = 1.651

Tweak voltages such as CPU-NB Voltage to stabilize the memory.

Thank you

I just want to note how UNHELPFUL that response was. I clearly stated I've tried multiple adjustments with the voltages. Thanks anyway.

CR will need to be at 2N, CPU/NB may need 1.375 or so, CPU may also need to go up a bit

[GSKILL TECH]

Well, if all your hardware is good, the memory modules are error free, all that's left are settings and voltages. There are no compatibility issues, but make sure you have the latest BIOS.

Thank you

You have your CPU/NB frequency set way too high at 3000MHz with this Flare set.
Putting too much stress on the IMC, try it around 2600-2700MHz.
Set the CPU/NB voltage at 1.275v and NB voltage at 1.3875v.
The 890 chipset and 1090T IMC may not allow you to achieve 2000MHz with 8GB memory.
Keep in mind that the 890 chipset is basically limited to 1866MHz memory, fact of life.
The new AMD 990 chipset will fully support memory up to 2133MHz.

I played around with a 2x4GB 2133 memory set a few months back.
Could not maintain consistent stability above 2000MHz.
1907MHz was the best I could do for overall 24/7 stability.
My 2x2GB CL7 Flares would easily do 2055MHz, but again, this was only a 4GB set.

Installing my new Crosshair V Formula tomorrow, going to test a host of memory modules soon.

Okay. These are the kinds of responses I was hoping to get. Sorry if I came off rude but it just was frustrating not having any clear responses. Thank you everyone.

Been away from this build for a while but now I'm going back to start tweaking again. So I'll keep all the advice in mind.

On another note, NemisisChild what fan(s) did you decide on using for the push/pull on your H50? Curious since that's an easy buy to drop 2-5 degrees.

I'm using Ultra performance, dual ball bearing fans (rated at 2100 RPM's).
