so i have Geil Evo Two 16GB DDR3-2400 CL11 quad kit ( 32 GB )
but when i run it on 2400mhz its not stable

i tried also 2133mhz @ 9-10-11-30 (stable)
so is there a way to get it at full speed stable any help would be appreciated.

Well, mixing two kits it's not always good on the RIVE...

What exactly do you mean by "not running stable"? Are you getting BSODs? If yes, what's the code?

You will prob have to set the latencies approx. 12% higher (10 -> 11, 11 -> 12, 30 -> 33 for example), add approx. 0.05V, and maybe set the speed one notch slower. Don't even bother trying XMP, use manual.
Set VCCSA higher for starters.
Also, we are now experimenting W/trying clock gen filter 20uF, but whether or not this helps is as yet unknown. GL

Overclocking is useless to me if it is not rock stable.
