Just ordered a z790 board. Which memory did you go with?

Got the z790 board really nice board but if you plan on running xmp it will boot loop. I went with Corsair vengeance 6000

I just build a Z790 Hero. And my DDR5 6000 36-36-36-96 did with a few clicks now 6600Mhz same timings.. at 1.42v ... no error and max performance! ;) Im running 2 sticks.. 2 x 16.. They run GREAT at 6600Mhz 36-36-36-96... I dont know how I can further improve BIOS settings. I have now 60.2ns latency and 102GB sec read and 90 sec write..

@lassekristensen385 just build hero z790 with 5200 mhz dom ram . It blue screened but bios update fixed it just cannot controll rgb .

@@harrysmith5353 I'm having similar issue. Z790-E with g.skill 7200. Bootloop after bootloop all day.

Hi, any suggest for Kingston FURY KF552C40BBAK2-16 (x2, so total 32 GB), i have problem on settings 5200Mhz, 1.35V seems to high...

@@njuna900 Upgrade BIOS first, that's a start.. after that 1.35V must work, but unlinked, 1.35 for each slot... 5200 is easy to achieve, should work without problems... but for 32 gigs, you should have gotten 2x 16 sticks just to be safe... I get it for 64 as there less 2x 32 kits on the market

@@LevelUPGamingTech HI, thanks for your reply, thanks a lot! i have upgrade the bios with the last firmware, i have TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS with bios 1720.

Never

Thank you. I was scared to go that high with the voltage

For what? Wasted money

5200 is a dumb speed to get also because it's more expensive than 4800 but you are still getting micron chips, so you might aswell buy 4800, same performance but a little cheaper

@@heinzletzte.6385 You dont know how much they paid.

I have a i7 12700kf z690-F with 4x ram sticks: 2x adata xpg lancer 5200 mhz and x2 4800mhz Corsair Vengeance, i have mixed rams with different mhz because last year took me 4 months to build the pc, it was very hard to find gpu and other components, had to '' win queues '' to get ram, so after multiple attempts i ended up with 2 different rams. I couldn't find a solution for the DDR5 - XMP1 infinite boot so i did set auto and got default MHZ for 9 months. Today after watching your video and talked to friends last week, I decided to try it out,tthe volt change it didn't fix it but i found the solution: i did xmp-1 , AI OC up , frequency up to 4800mhz instead of 5200 or auto, it works perfectly. So basically the xmp1 setup was automatically set all rams at 5200 causing system being unstable, lowering the 5200 to 4800 and applying ai oc Now i have 4800 in my task manager instead of 3600-4000mhz, plus i can get 5000 aswell, it's a good solution. With XTU and AI OC I increased the CPU performance by an incredible amount . My GPU instead was already Overclocked with MSI afterburner with over 20k on time spy , it's a 3080 ti suprim x.

@Waldherz FeuerClan what do you mean "they"?

This absolutely worked for me. I am running the crosshair x670e hero with 4 sticks of ddr5-6400. I was searching for your solution. You friend, have the best solution to this problem in the internet!

@@jamiethompson2967 Hi man. What memories do you have and what capacity?

Ao u have 6400 4x16 tridents? Because i was stucl in a loop. Did it work?

I have a similar Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 2x32 64GB ram kit as you and a 13700k. When PC is put into sleep mode, upon start up, the system will only click then light up briefly, no boot, no windows, only ram rgb would stay on. Did you have a similar experience before this fix? Thanks

No I did not. The whole XMP DDR5 thing is a deceptive, very difficult thing to achieve. I recently crashed my system and corrupted my Windows 11 OS drive trying to run it at XMPII at 6600 MTs. Took me days to fix the boot using a recovery drive and the CMD function. It was a nightmare. I have since left my BIOS memory settings on default at 4800 MTs for peace of mind. Decided to just enjoy my games and sims with my kit as it is. @@countdadcula4475

I have the same exact issue with my new build and I’ve been trying to troubleshoot for almost a week. My motherboard detected it as a CPU issue but in reality it’s my DDR4 Ram (4x16) as well. I have also been using the xmp profile1 on my MSI Z690 Motherboard. Just wondering if you added extra volts and if your build ran safely or if there was any efficient change to stick with 64gb of ram because I would love to be able to edit in 4k but with this problem it is a huge issue. Thank you!

Did it pass a memtest86?

@@ChromeMagnum, yes, they all passed. It's been quite a while and I think there has been 2 BIOS revisions since. I believe one of them is improvement on DRAM but we will see :D

Had to do the same thing on my DDR4 X470....

it was already garbage on z690 except for a few kits (corsair didnt work at all for me only g.skill) i hoped amd would be better nope its WORSE >

It's because it's new and 3600mhz is default. but companies are rushing into the unknown at 6000

DDR5 wasn't rushed, but it's implementation by Ram and Motherboard manifacturers was. DDR5 works 100% perfectly fine at THE CPU's designed frequencies. *XMP IS AN OVERCLOCK* , so there's no guarentee you will get it working at that speed as long as the CPU MC is still only rated for 4800MTs, which is currently the case with the latest line of consumer CPUs. So many people are experiancing issues because of a mix between companies' race for the top with crazy memory and cpu OC clocks out of the box, that just aren't stable aross all bins of cpu, and the consumer's lack of knowlage of what XMP actually is. Yes XMP normally works with 2 dimms, but the CPU's memory controller isn't designed to support them speeds, so it's hardly surprising issues are popping up everywhere, like when trying to OC not 2 but 4 dimms to >1.5x the CPU's maximum rated MC speed!! Even if the memory seller is rating it at that speed, as it's kind of miss-leading as no CPU manifacturer at the moment will guarantee anywhere near some of these speeds, even for 2 dimms, even if the ram can handle it fine (again DD5 wasn't rushed, it's highly advanced, and is in fact technologically AHEAD of the current CPUs limitations, which is exactly what you want from new tech). DDR5 is amazing tech, people are just too greedy, and because they see someone with a golden chip and crazy binned dimms hitting like 8000MTs with dual sticks, they expect every set of ram to behave the same way with their CPU even when "doubling" the stress on the MC with a four stick set up. It just doesn't work like this. You have to manage your expectations through understanding some of the limitations with current CPU design when it comes to implementing DD5 ram into a build. *ANYTHING OVER 4800MTs RUNNING ON DDR5 IS AN OVERCLOCK OF THE PROCESSOR'S MEMORY CHANNEL* The higher you go, and the more sticks you have per channel, the more stress you put the MC controller under, and on some of the less well binning CPU MCs even getting 4800MTs with 4 sticks of unmatched 4800 rated ram can be a challenge! Although tbf that is the worst combination for all variables, it puts things into perspective as far as the limitations of some CPUs memory controllers. It's all about managing expectations, and understanding the limitations of the current supporting technology.

@@DaftFaderMy Asrock board natively detects my DDR5-5200 as "DDR5-2000" from the SPD. Tell me again how all of this isn't a broken hack. Or in other words: How hard can it be to have something like an EEPROM to contain some numbers and have a BIOS read those out without getting utterly confused!?

I'm using 4 might go down to just 2 for 32 gb. I've read reviews others have got it to be stable at 6400mhz with two sticks. Doesn't look like trident supports it with 4, I was running ok with the default at 3800mhz. Saw somewhere else 4000-4400mhz is the best you are going to get with Trident on this board. Best I got to even boot so far was 5800MHZ on the stock timing with voltage at 1.45V. Occasional crashing running games, mem86 shows a lot of errors. Model F5-6400J3239G16GX2-TZ5RS

If you are using Asus then there should be a “high DRAM voltage mode” (switch it to Enabled) that unlocks that 1.435 limit but use with caution!

Did it work? I have the same board and would like to know

Yeah dude me too :D

I found out what to do. In MSI BIOS, first click on Advanced Mode (hit F7). Then go to OC Settings, and scroll all the way down, until you find voltage settings. There, put DRAM Voltage and DRAM VDDQ to 1.3 Volts each. Then, there should be an option right below that says "link". That's where you put it to "unlink" and I don't remember the option name 100%, but i recall it being something with DRAM Voltage. Once it is unlinked, you have to set the 1.3 Voltage to the new options that appear. That is just so you set 1.3 volts to 1 ram stick, and 1.3 volts to the second ram stick (if you're running 2 sticks) Hope this helps anyone out there
