Memory overclocking does not work and computer freezes after 15-20 minutes even just idle
2 hours ago, Gloremas34 said:Hello, I have been struggling when trying to overclock my memory to the 3000mhz that my memory is rated for. I have tried all the way from 2666mhz to the 3000 that it says in the box. I tried the default XMP settings but after about 15-20 minutes of doing anything, whether it be just internet browsing or gaming the system freezes and I have to reboot.
My specs are:CPU: Core i9 9900k - stock settings
Motherboard: ASUS TUF Z390-Pro Gaming
Memory: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 2x16 3200mhz C16, Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 2x8 3000mhz C16 (yes they are in the right slots so they're with the ones they're supposed to be with) I tried both only the 32GB pack, and the 16GB pack by itself and both have the same problem when you overclock them at all.
Graphics Cards: RX 580 8GB, RX 580 4GB
Storage: Samsung 960 Evo 250GB, Western Digital 2tb 7200rpm HDD
LPX ram doesn't like overclocking. It's not going to make much of a difference for what you're doing, nothing you can really do about it. You could try to RMA the ram I guess stating that it didn't hit advertised speeds.
