What bios rev are you running? Lower the ram speed or back off on the timings and see if the problem goes away.

It's not unstoppable. Old versions of agesa were prone to whea errors when ram was ran fast. They updated the agesa code and whea errors stopped.

Then that should be an easy fix!

Hmmm I thought jokes were meant to be funny....

 

And yes, it should be uncorrectable, I just assume that not everyone here is a native speaker and often error messages don't translate well.

Ok, good, that's the latest. You should reset CMOS and load "default optimized settings " or similar if it asks you, then just load into windows and see if that fixes it.

 

If that doesn't fix it, then yes, something is probably wrong with the RAM, either defective or not fully compatible.

Try manually setting the ram timings, I had issues with xmp, but I was able to manually tune and get the same results. It just takes time.

I pushed my system to an "achievable" XMP but not recommended by Asus. Set the speed of the ram, then set all CAS or other RAM timings to Auto.

Restart. Ignore the newly set timings long as it works and you are stable, you will not lose performance.
