Computer shuts off when ram set to advertised speed

ShadowlessFear

Basically the title. I just upgraded to a 2700x and got some new ram to go with it. I used the A-XMP profile to set my ram to 3066 but the computer shuts off if I do anything too intensive(or open a bunch of chrome tabs like I've been doing to test it lol). Do I need to increase voltage or something?I listed the ram and mobo below along with the other specs. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Motherboard

Ram

GTX 2060

Ryzen 7 2700x

If your pc is shutting off without BSOD, you most likely have a completely different issue that is not ram related. are you getting blue screen or no? if so whats the error?

That kit is not on the QVL. XMP is not guaranteed. Update your bios, load XMP try 2933 and work your way up from there, voltage may be needed.

My bios is up to date, there are two XMP presets for it that match up exactly with the timings advertised so I assume it found the right profile. How do I know how much voltage to add if needed? Right now I'm running at profile one which is 3066 and that crashes.

That's exactly what's happening to me. How did you solve it? Just increased the pagefile space? And if so how much? I've already updated my bios.
