Hello everyone.
I have built a new system and for some reason unable to run it smoothly with any of the XMP profiles - the machine can boot up, I can perform light tasks like browsing and office work, but when it comes to games I have frequent crashes to the desktop without any error messages and occasionally, somewhat rare there are BSODs related to: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, Memory Management or ntoskrnl.exe.
I have tried XMP I and II with next settings (below. Provided by Buildzoid). Although both of the profiles are not stable, it seems XMP II is the least unstable with those settings, since default timings being used (contrary to XMP I - which is tweaked version by ASUS, as far as I understand). By the least unstable, I mean it: 1. Gives much less errors in memtest86 and I can play games without crashing to desktop for quite awhile (sometimes hours, with except to one old title) - I have tested with the last games like CP2077, RE4. Funny enough, what made me into researching was Wreckfest - it seems this game is especially RAM XMP OC sensitive - not matter which XMP profile I use, I cannot even finish 6 laps before it crashes to desktop.
I have tried every possible combination of sticks: tested them one by one and in couples - all tests are PASS in Memtest86. But as soon as I try all 4 sticks together, there are errors under both XMP profiles. Another observation while doing testing in Memtest86 is that for all 13 tests that this app provides, only 12th test - "Random number sequence, 128-bit" - gives errors, the rest 12 tests being passed without any errors for both XMP profiles.
My specs as follows:
MB: Asus ROG STRIX Z790-E GAMING (BIOS ver.: 1501)
CPU: Intel Core i9-13900K 3 GHz 24-Core (Stock)
RAM: CMT32GX5M2X6200C36 *4 (Kits of 2 sticks each)
RAM OC settings as follows:
DRAM RAS# ACT TIME - 28
DRAM RAS# to RAS# Delay L - 6
DRAM RAS# to RAS# Delay S - 4
DRAM REF Cycle Time 2 - 333 (Cycle Time 1 also the same value)
DRAM REF Cycle Time Same Bank - 233
DRAM Refresh Interval - 65000
DRAM Read to PRE Time - 12
DRAM FOUR ACT WIN Time - 16
DRAM CKE Minimum Pulse Width - 4
tRDRD_sg_Runtime - 12
tRDRD_dg_Runtime - 7
tWRWR_sg - 12
tWRWR_dg - 7
tWRRD_sg - 60
tWRRD_dg - 48
tWRPRE - 44
tWRPDEN - 44
tXP - 4
tPPD - 0
CPU System Agent Voltage Override - 1.10000
CPU Input Voltage - 1.90000
DRAM VDD Voltage - 1.40000
DRAM VDDQ Voltage - 1.40000
IVR Transmitter VDDQ Voltage - 1.40000
Misc. stability settings as follows:
PCI Express Native Power Management - Disabled
ASPM - Disabled
Needless to say, if I Load Optimized Defaults and Enforce All limits for MCE the system is perfectly stable, although memory runs at 4200 instead of 6200, which is sad, any workaround to stabilize all 4 sticks and make them work 6200?
