Dammit!

From what I have been able to gather on the net, earlier versions of AURA(earlier this year even) where really buggy.
When the G.Skill Trident Z RGB Series(like I have now) came out, AURA(and G.Skills own RGB software) was corrupting the SPD's on them
That has been fixed now.
But owners would either have to either RMA, or fix it themselves using this: http://www.softnology.biz/

Latest one I got from Asus site, for my MB is Version 1.07.22 2018/10/25 but there's also Version 1.06.17 2018/04/2065 Lighting_Control_1.06.17 which provides even more synchronization with more devices like RAM, keyboards etc. Lot's a bling there, would drive me crazy.
Actually worst part is that's messing with BIOS directly instead to be only SW based.

Thanks guys, I'm now quite sure, but I may have hit a wall now(meaning it's getting hard to get higher), actually adding even a little bit more voltage, makes it freeze at boot faster, so I may have found the "ASUS Z370 9900K wall".... maybe

Yep, the same with mine Cliff. I had to set the LLC to 3 with 1.550V and Auto Positive Offset. Max Vcore in the BIOS is 1.550V.

But even with the Vcore limit 6GHz is possible.
