Somehow your bios is ignoring the SPD chip in the ram. If it's running at 7-7-7-20 and failing MemTest, then definitely you need to increase the timings a bit. But if it passes with increased voltage, then it should be fine. 7-7-7-20 is quite a bit faster than the original timings.

If anything, just change the tRAS to 24. If that's not enough, increase the CAS back to 9.
