Hi peeps, I recently bought an I7 9800x and a Asus TUF x299 mk2 in a great deal: I7 - 368$ ASUS x299 - 329$ + 160$ cashback total combo = 537$ So then I decided to sell my old 8700k and the board since I needed more pcie lanes to add a second GPU. My kind of workload is 3d rendering...

If you are willing to eventually invest onto your pc, it might be a good idea to search for a silver or gold psu that has at least 650W. Seasonic, corsair, evga, phantecs and be!quiet would be the brands I'd advise you to look for. About the modularity: -Non-modular: Cables are all stuck to...

I still think its a cpu or motherboard issue. If you have a friend with a different but somehow better and recent setup than yours, give it a try and run Memtest64 as you did go see if it happens as well

Well, plot twist

Yes, I never disagreed with you about the memtest86 being the best option. I was just telling the guy he needed to use it 'cause the only tests he' ve made were with memtest64. Anyway, we both can add knowledge to solve his problem and that's something we should definitely agree 😉

Your consideration might not be completely correct and only tests can tell. But since you seem too stubborn to understand that the issue might be related to other factors than the ram itself, I'll share this for you to read -...

Yep, only memtest64 does. But that's what He's using right now. Tho I'd bet the problem remains only when he's using the XMP. If the rams were defective, probably the issues would reflect without XMP anyway.

You could try an NZXT KRAKEN G12 with a NZXT KRAKEN X42. It might be easier than building a custom WC loop

The errors only appear when he uses the XMP, it could be related to the cpu or the board besides the ram, sending them to RMA might not be the best solution for him since he'll be left without a computer for 1 month. If you really want to test your ram, the best solution is to install memtest...

Honestly, I'd prefer to ignore those errors as long as your system is stable in the long run. There's nothing off that could cause anything to degrade faster so that seems pretty good. Memtest is not the only way of testing your rams, corsair also has a software for that and you might try to...

Actually memtest is affected by cpu overclock as well, it might be the reason he's getting the errors. It may also, as you said, be defective rams but I think the issue might be related to the NorthBridge. Also, do you have your bios updated?

Try to go in the bios and change the multiplier to x40 instead of x42 and run the same test

Sync all Cores only forces all cores to run at the same speed. If it wasnt enabled you could read 4,2ghz but only, for example, 2 out of 4 would run 4.2ghz. But that's a good thing that you have all cores at 4,2ghz and if your computer runs stable now with good temps, it shouldn't have any problem.

When you enable XMP profiles, usually your cpu also gets a boost in frequency. That may be the reason why you are experiencing benefits from the XMP profile

And now when you play you get crashes after this change? Screen tearing is completely related to V-sync not being enabled. Frame drops are most likely an issue with your cpu being in use for something else other than the game you're playing or could actually be that the game is high demanding in...
