@Lost_N_BIOS I have another question.
This xeon 1235L is a low power 25W, but when i delided this cpu i did some tests with prime95, and i noticed that for a minute or two cpu went to 35W power draw (core temp shows this, don't if it is reliable) and boost was also up for about 200MHz on all cores.
Is this a bios setting or IME or something else?

I hope you understand what i'm trying to say, english is not my native language. :)

Try XMP and see what outcome is for XMP 1 and XMP 2 BIOS options.

I do know what you mean about the wattage draw, but I cannot explain how or why you see that, sorry. I assume it's 25W TDP on stock, not when turbo'd, so that may explain it

@Lost_N_BIOS
Unfortunately there is no XMP settings (or i cannot find it).
I think it should be somwhere under System Agent Configuration, but its not.

@Jest - It should be at Advanced >> Chipset >> System Agent >> Memory Config - "Dimm Profile (Default, Custom, XMP 1, XMP 2). If you were not changing this before, from Default to Custom, that would be why it's always failing to allow you to set higher than 2133 (Which is probably "Default")
Thanks for the pic, yes it should be right above the setting I enabled for you previously. Here is mod2 again, with now Dimm Profile enabled and a ton of other memory settings.

Now, try Custom and set Max Memory Freq to 2400 or above - then later if that keeps failing try XMP options.
Sorry I didn't mention that before, I thought I asked you if you set Dimm Profile to custom, but maybe we missed each other on this setting previously it has to be changed from default to custom to try anything above 2133 probably.

Can you set memory voltage, and other related voltages, or do those need enabled too?

There are absolutely no other memory setting except memory frequency, as you can see from that picture. This is under System Agent Conf./Memory configuration.

I believed you, that's why I said thanks for the pic, I didn't check the pic until after I typed out that first sentence already . Try new BIOS I linked above now, it has lots more options added.

Ok thanks, i'll try it, probably tomorow, i'm at work right now.
Thanks again.

I look forward to your results, hopefully with new options and advice above you can get above 2133 this time. I added lots of settings this time too, and most importantly that Dimm Profile setting option

@Lost_N_BIOS - Just a quick update. Flashed mod2-2, enabled XMP profile 1, but frequency is still 2133MHz so i guess i'm out of luck here. BUT, timings went from stock 15.15.15.35 2T to 15.12.12.28 1T, which is not bad. I did not have time to test more, but it's something. I'm glad all of this wasnt complete waste of time.

You're welcome, sorry I couldn't get it working for you properly. Try XMP and you might get lucky!

@Lost_N_BIOS - Had some time to do more tests, and ram frequency does not change to more than 2133MHz no matter what
Timings are more interesting. Lowest stable are 13.11.11.28 1T, which is wery good. Unfortunately there is no voltage settings for ram, but i'm still happy with relative low latency. I didn't try lower tRAS yet, but other are probably final. CAS 12 was not stable.

@Jest - I can look at adding ram voltage and timings to be visble for you if you want? I know there is a lot of timings there,but I need to see images of which you can and can't see before I can enable them all
And I just noticed, I don't think we tested a change at Custom control on memory speed, I only enabled at one place not secondary custom submenu (My fault there!). Show me images of everything you can see inside Chipset >> System Agent >> Memory Config (All settings here and inside submenus inside there)
I just checked, nothing for voltages, but I think we should give the memory a try again with this setting I think I missed, will wait on your images though so I can go ahead and enable it all at once.


Cas 12 might work better like this 12-13-12 or 12-14-12, or 12-12-12 (that low tRCD may hold back everything else, if you left that at 11 before trying to lower CAS, this should ideally be = or above CAS)

@Lost_N_BIOS - Well, CAS12 does not work. Went all the way up to 12.15.15.35, but isn't stable.

Here are two photos of bios, just like you requested.

Thanks for the images. Maybe lack of voltage control is the real issue there? Or it could be some of the subtimings possibly too.

On the Custom Profile Control page, you have two Max memory freq, which do you see (I'll change to only one, matching the one on page before this one)
Is both >> 1067-2133
Or do you have one like that ^^ and one 1067-3200

This was the page I didn't think I enabled the freq setting for you on, like the other page, and looking at the mod I sent you now I enabled the 1067-3200, so I think you should have that, just need to disable the one above it I think (In case that matters?)

Main timings are set to 13-11-11-26, I see tRRD 4, that is really low! Try setting that to 8-10 and try again your overclocks. And tFAW, try 28 instead
Also, tWTR = Zero (maybe this is auto, so not actually zero)?? I'm not sure what is ideal for this kit, or any 2x16GB kit, but zero isn't good even for a single 1GB stick Check in windows to see current applied vs zero showing in BIOS
Try 8-14 but before doing that, see if you can find out what all is being applied from within windows for current auto settings there.

Can you show me the XMP profiles for this memory kit, with AIDA64 or HWINF64 (scroll down to where the extended profiles are, in large window, memory section, pick a module then scroll down)
Better if you can show this on AIDA64, or maybe CPU-z, if it's shown there. HWINFO shows it, but timings are shown in odd formats usually.

First one is 1067-2133, second one is 1067-3200.

Everything, except tCL-tRCD-tRP-tRAS, is as default setting, didn't change anything else. Will try other timings with CL12, maybe it will help. It's been a long time since i've been tweaking asus rog motherboards.
XMP profiles coming later today.
