That is interesting, thanks for letting us know. Can you explain how you managed to do this? Did you just switch on XMP and set voltage to 1.25V before rebooting. There are so many settings these days I must admit that I try not to play with them too much - and in this case the amount of time it...

Hi, Here is an update - I really hate it when people ask for help but never let people following the thread know what happened in the end... (this isn't quite the end yet") I did get the i7 machine to boot in the end and it does work fine but the memory will only run up to 5000 (even though...

Does their serial number also start the same by any chance? Why do you think its a CPU compatibility issue when I can get 2 sets of memory to work with an i7 and an i9 on a known good board, but not on the other three boards?

Ah ok, I see what you are saying. So you have the exact same 32GB kit as me? It is listed on the Gigabyte motherboard compatibility sheet. Bearing in mind I have 1 board that will run either of the two sets of memory that I have with the i7 or the i9, and that it is listed as compatible by...

I don't understand what you mean, I have 12700K and you have 12700KF, are you saying the entry just shows as 12700? If so I would assume they mean either? Yes send the link please!

Chup, I couldn't get any joy out of any combination of memory 1 or 2 sticks on the i7 system. However, the i9 board works with both sticks at XMP 5600, both its own and the i7's pair. If I put the i7 in the i9 system, it still works perfectly. I would guess you have a slightly better board than...

Well, a third motherboard has now arrived and is non-functioning exactly the same. I have raised another ticket with Gigabyte. 3x SN21440000XXXX not working, serials all within 100 of each other :unsure:. 1xSN21460000XXXX working perfectly with all the parts that I have for both machines. It...

I did indeed!

I will do. I am already discussing directly with them. They dont yet know I have a second board and they are both faulty as their message system is only "half duplex" and its their turn to send a message lol

OK, unbelievably, the i9 does not work in system 2 on the new motherboard either. I haven't bothered to try it on the original motherboard as its identical problem to what I have always had, but I did try System 3 DRAM in System 2 with new motherboard and it made no difference, I wanted to try...

@JohnBonhamsGhost, you are right, I must try the i9 in at least one of the mobos that wont work with the i7! First job today, I will report back. @punkncat, yes, it is confusing and hard to explain clearly yes. I will consider your suggestion. @Chup_Gaming, that is all interesting information...

Hi, I appreciate your reading this. It gets confusing sorry if I wasn't clear! From what I have read, the flash succeeded, the amber light flashed fast for a while (experience indicates to me that's writing), then slow for a while (experience indicates to me that's verifying), the machine then...

Gigabyte Z690 GAMING X (1.0) DDR5, Intel i7-12700K and Corsair CMK32GX5M2B5600C36 will not POST, fans spin fast speed. I have CPU and DRAM lights alternatively flashing and eventually I get 4 long beeps and the system resets and repeats. I have flashed the BIOS using the USB and button method...
