Hi everyone! This is my first serious computer and I'm having trouble stabilizing the system. I would really appreciate some help.
Here's my symptoms: Suddenly, out of nowhere, my RAM XMP profile now causes the system to boot loop about 8 times before it'll post. I just removed the XMP profile (Corsair Vengeance 3000Mhz), but its a bit of a bummer that I'm at 2133Mhz.
More importantly, the overclock seems unstable. My temps are really good but after about 8 minutes of stress testing, the power will suddenly jump from ~120W to 230W with no change in clock or performance. I'm not sure if this behavior is normal but I'm I don't experience these jumps in gaming or video editing.
Additionally, it seems sometimes when the system is idle or under low load, it will freeze in entirety. I tried DL a game overnight but it seemed to freeze about 10-15 mins in (just an example)
I have a 9900k in a Z390 with the following settings:
Edit: Board is a ASUS Z390i
