I got to the bottom of it, the 3057 and probably 3042 versions of the BIOS do not play at all with Windows Sleep and EXPO profile.

Hi there, no this process goes way over my head. In my case the issue actually started with version 3042, I was going to update to 3035 but the 3042 just came out of beta. Overall im not sure sure where the cut off of roll back is, but going to 3042 It did notify me that I can't go back. Please...

This does explain some of the disconnect we have been having over the past week. But you are correct the Ram was running perfectly fine at the rated 6000mhz speed untill the 3042 and 3057 bios updates. I have to have to point out that I after finding out how to replicate the POST issue, I...

Reply from Asus: "BIOS Flashback button to flash bios again the motherboard. Fail no post. If motherboard BIOS flash, and persist, RMA the motherboard." If I were to decode this, they want me to use the non-bios option to flash the existing version of Bios again. This means that I just have a...

Update: I think I figured out how to trigger the Boot issue. If I turn on my computer put it to sleep at least once, and then turn it off, the next cold boot will be a failure event at 5200MHz. No EXPO profile running did not cause an issue.

Nevermind, the system failed to post once again.... Asus got back to me, maybe they can replicate.....

True, but when I was doing my basic research I looked into the parings and through the two AMD systems I've gone through (this being my second one) the EXPO profile in both cases has worked at the rated speed once the EXPO was enabled. I guess that is where my surprise appeared to be as I just...

Just to clarify, when I said "I couldn't get anything to happen" meaning the fail-to-boot screen wasn't popping up (I'll edit the post). The system was stable at the base settings it seemed, but I was a bit trigger-happy that day and pushed past just running it at base settings. And maybe a side...

Hello Everyone, Thank you for sticking around on this saga and your expertise. I did a cold boot today and it seemed like the 1/20 chance the computer decided to turn on without issue from cold boot. Restarting and setting it to default to 4800MT/s and there seems to be no issue with Cold...

Wow thanks for the amazing detailed breakdown, can't wait to try it out! So I do have the EXPO setting on my DRAM, the ram in question is specifically this one: https://www.gskill.com/product/165/390/1661410135/F5-6000J3038F16GX2-TZ5NR If I recall correctly I was very careful on my MB to DRAM...

All good, thanks for your time and the insight to trouble shoot.

I'll need to wait till Thursday to check, stay tuned. However looking at my MB manual I think I am beginning to get your jist, as if Pg. 6 is to be believed then I might have seleted timings that Asus has set rather then the what is on the Ram. I think I need to go and change the clock Dram...

Hello Bob.B, Yes, the expo ram option is a drop down that appears when you boot into the Basic Bios and there is just a drop down to enable, although in the advance I think there were other options but I am not sure if those automatically change setting for you as well. For what it is at the...

Hi Lutfji, No I did not clear my CMOS. It seems like the battery is in a convenient plate to remove, but I see there is a clear cmos button on the MB, I assume it does the same thing no? Regarding the settings what do I loose? Just the start up parameters?

Hello Everyone, I recently upgraded my Bios to version 3042 to patch out the AMD vulnerability, and proceed to use the system, except on cold boot the system would fail to post and I would see only the option to go onto bios and then start the system from there. Looking around, I upgraded the...
