I have an Asus Z170-A along with an i5-6600k and Corsair vengeance rgb 3200 ram (16gb). I'm having an issue when overclocking the RAM using the default xmp setting to 3200mhz. Any time that I do this and play htc Vive, the base stations will not connect. The stations will light up green then within 5-10 seconds go black then come back on and off over and over. Setting the ram to 2133 eliminates the problem so something odd is going on with the motherboard. I previously used some cheaper ram running at 3000mhz and had the same issue. Thinking it was a ram problem I bought better ram. No luck. Any thoughts on what is going on? I stepped the ram down slowly and 2133 is the only speed that the vive will run off of without issues.
