your not supposed to move the heatsink like that unless the TIM is freshly put on lol.

since the RAM seems to love VTT, so not be afraid to put 1.3V+

Hi N-ster.No luck so far.
mem set@ 1810mhz 7-7-7-20
1. mem voltage 1.7v vtt@ 1.3v .vtt@1.32v,vtt@ 1.3v = boot failure.
2. mem voltage 1.72v vtt@ 1.3v, vtt@1.32v vtt @1.3v= boot failure.

Also in advance dram feature in bios, do I set performance enhance to standard/turbo or extreme.because xmp is off but I have
performance enhance on turbo-would that effect the memory settings?Because some have it on standard or extreme with xmp off.Thanking you for hanging in there with me.This is giving me a headache.
and finally thanks for pushing me, to get the most out of the overclocking in a hopefully safe way.

Set it to standard. This way you get better stability.

Try higher VTT. 1810 7-8-7-24 mem 1.72V VTT 1.36V ish

if that doesn't work, I guess it's best to just stay around the stock clocks and tweak the other timings
