    [SOLVED] PC won't boot with XMP enabled

    Yes, I it is in fact CMW16GX4M2D3600C18. I will swap it out for the CMW16GX4M2Z3600C18 and give it another shot. Will update on the progress, thanks!

    [SOLVED] PC won't boot with XMP enabled

    By the way, with XMP disabled and speed set to "auto", the speed of the memory is set to 2133. Is this a case of the CPU not being compatible with the 3600MHz?

    [SOLVED] PC won't boot with XMP enabled

    Yes, they are in the same dimm slots as in your diagram. I can't actually fit a stick into A1 even if I wanted, as there is not enough clearance with my Hyper 212 evo. Thanks!

    Question Windows refuses to boot with both ram sticks in

    This I tried already and it worked with single sticks of ram. I guess this is my next course of action other than replacing the ram. I was avoiding this as Gigabyte says to avoid updating bios if it is unnecessary due to potential risks. Will try and update. Thanks
