ECLIPSE + CORSAIR 2000 6GB 7-8-7-20 = NEW BIOS?

[ioanniselafros]

I JUST GOT MY BRAND NEW MEM: CORSAIR 2000 6GB 7-8-7-20 , BUT THE ECLIPSE DOES NOT BOOT AT THESE SPECS.
ONLY BOOTS WHEN DOWNGRADE MEMORY TO 1333 MHZ!!!. NEED NEW BIOS OR A NEW MOTHERBOARD? BECAUSE I DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT CHANGING THIS MEMORY...
SOMEONE???

@jamalpan : do you tried running with xmp enable ? Leave all bios setting to auto...and let see if the xmp working...i put my corsair dominator 1866CL9 with xmp enable and ALL BIOS setting in auto...boot and stable with default clock i7 920 and mem running at 1866mhz..passing the 3dmv, pcmv, cine10, everest mem test and palying the hard games without any problem..i'm using bios 1.44

1866MHz CL9 is something completely different to 2000MHz CL7.
The sad part is that many people get fooled by marketing tricks.

@frans2h
no my friend, even with bios 1.44 my corsair 2000 7-8-7-20 cannot boot with xmp enable or manual settings.
I' waiting for newer betas from MSI. At the end i'm positive MSI will follow other board makers who already support those settings which are far from just marketing unless someone is considering 33 gb/s in sandra or rightmark mem, trick of the market...
