I just bought a set of G.Skill Ripjaws 16GB at 2133Mhz http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231517 (Did not buy at Newegg but its the model) and I'm currently having issues with my machine booting at 2133Mhz. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD9 and it says it can support RAM speeds of 2200Mhz and I assumed that it was compatible with this RAM set, however when set to 2133Mhz it can post, but does not go past the Windows boot screen. It can run at 2000Mhz though. Is there anyway I can make the RAM run at its rated speed? I'm using 3 sticks only at the moment.
 
Uncore is the reason it isn't booting at rated speed I'd wager. To get higher memory clocks, you need to crank the uncore voltage in addition to 4GB DIMMs needing more uncore voltage.
