Called luck !

Or something weird with BIOS or Windows??

I too thought... luck. But it's been stable (even through stress tests) for over a year now. ??

Somehow knew you would try to get me to overclock !!

No. There's just a lot of folks on there that KNOW how to tweak the BIOS.

You'll even find folks with same motherboard and CPU, that have already solved these problems.



But... if you WANT to overclock... that's the place to go.

So wouldn't be easier to try it myself or return and try different RAM sticks ?

Not interested at overclocking

Technically... setting the RAM at manufacturer's specs (these days), is considered overclocking.
Back in the day it was considered a.... right guaranteed by the Constitution.

I don't think the RAM sticks are the problem.
I have, over the years, learned that Corsair RAM is the easiest RAM to set to manufacturer's specs.
Generally, that's because they run looser timings.
