I think the issue is with my motherboard, an ASUS ROG Z790 Maximus Hero.
Twice now, when I install 4 sticks of RAM, my BIOS won't post. But with just 2 sticks, it does, and works fine.
I've tried upgrading to 64GB of G.Skill Trident Z5 DDR5-7800 (4x16GB sticks) from my original 32GB, but BIOS wont post. Returned the 2nd set, bought 3 months after the original.
Now I've tried 4 sticks of Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR5-7600 C36, 2 sticks post, 4 doesn't.
I've noticed that with just 2 sticks, the default timing is 4000, and then I set the XMP timing in the BIOS.
But with 4 sticks, the default is 3600, and seems to have a conflict of timings between the sticks. They were/are all matching sets!
Is this my motherboard?
Should I go with a Gigabyte Z790 AORUS Master?
Or just ditch the idea of 64Gb (4x16GB)?
I like the cosmetics of the Corsair over the G.Skill. And 7600 v 7800 is not that much.
