Enable xmp, oc failed, help

[NumLock21]

I have a xeon 1650 v3 and gskill trident z ram at 3000mhz. When i enable xmp in the bios and save it. My system would freeze or windows won't load. When i reboot, it will say oc failed. Xmp was working when i just got my cpu a few months back. Could i have damage my cpu by oc too much?

what is your motherboard?

did you clear cmos?

Your mobo probably has a clear cmos button or jumper switch use that to clear your cmos and every thing in the bios will be set to default.

Intels Xeon CPUs have very weak memory controllers. It is likely the memory controller just can't deal with the high-frequency memory. You will just have to run the memory at ~2400mhz.

I was able to run it.

This cpu is basically a 5930K with ecc support.

I have asus x99 deluxe.

Did all of that. Doesn't help.

*tinfoil hat* intel send a microcode update only to my pc and zap my cpu? lol

Just remembered a few days ago I took out my ram so I can change the fans on my 212 Evo. Probably didn't have the ram seated properly. So I took it out, clean out the slots with a dust blower, and reinstalled it. XMP is now working again.
