I appreciate the info., & as some of comments mentioned i'm also aware of the mixed ram having been purchased in 2x16 packs separately, and a month in between purchases. I'm not sure of the specifics, regarding setting (manually) certain settings, and though XMP2 tends to input most, it also...

Well, it WAS stable. Now it's wanting to crash in games again. Maybe you, or someone, could aid me in either the specific info. to put into the XMP1 profile, including voltage, etc,; Or give me some assistance/info. to try to stabilize it. I'm sure XMP2 is not "perfect" when it puts in the power...

Right, i'll see if it shows as compatible, thanks for the info., but considering it's working flawlessly @6000 in XMP2, i'm o.k. with it, for now. lol Using 4 slots may not be an issue in many cases, but I was specifically speaking of this motherboard, and the reports that it IS an issue in this...

I'll try to respond in order: 1. It's been a while since I looked at my RAM specs, it' snot impossible I mis-typed a number, but I vaguely remember getting them from a link relating to my specific RAM. I'd have to go to Amazon history to confirm for sure, because though they look the...

Update: 1. Temps seem stable, occasional spikes but none to 100c, Package up to 90c, & P-Cores up to 93c. Continuing trying to stress it. Time will tell, I guess. This is with the default P-Core setting back in the BIOS, new thermal paste, & even upping RAM setting to 6000, and while utilizing...

I was honestly NOT aware of this being a thing ("Curing") for thermal paste. Very good info. Much appreciated. Temps stayed low throughout the editing, other than a spike to 88 for Package, and 90 for P Core, otherwise they stayed normally lower. I may have fixed the issue, though i'd still...

Hmm, o.k. thanks for the info. So it IS possible for a delayed reaction after applying the paste. VERY good to know it is a possibility. Thanks.

Any thoughts on this one...

I'm looking into a 280, but unsure I can even fit it into the case, unless I somehow could mount it at the top. I really wish I could send the photo of my case layout to make this make more sense. lol

Thanks for the info. As I mentioned, I VERY WELL could be getting uptight over NOTHING./ But, if it IS throttled due to hitting 100c, then it concerns me. Here is a weird thing - I re-applied the thermal paste, and re-seated the cooler pump on the CPU. In the beginning it was stil showing it...

"Stuck with it"...exactly. However, i've been using it since the recent build was completed, and this temp issue wasn't occurring the whole time i've been using it. Also, it is not set to OC anything, that is turned off. Honestly, after all the testing i've done, settings checked and/or changed...

I removed the pump from the cpu again, and this time altered and increased the amount of paste, reseated, and tightened the pump down tightly. I also re-checked that one hose wasn't cold, while the other warm, indicating it's fialing or not working as intended. It may be a bit underpowered for...

I don't like 3rd party crap, & mostly keep free from crapware, etc. normally, anyway. However, Armoury was the only thing I could find that would allow RGB configs for the RAM, MOBO, & GPU. Unless there's something out there lighter, and confirmed more reliable, i'm stuck with it for now.

After BIOS Flash here are the results: 1. It apparently reset the CPU P P cores back to 55. I'm also assuming it probably reset other things I don't want changed, such as disabling LSPM, etc., but i'll check on those later. I prefer to not have the PC shutting down things, for various reasons...

I'll address in order: 1. I am definitely concerned about the MB light. 2. As far as i'm aware, after updating the bios twice since completing the build, there is NO new bios update available, though i've not checked since last update, which WAS maybe a month ago, so i'll go check for any new...
