Thank you for the asnwer.
I did even a benchmark and i screnshotted everything from cpuid and from the bench

As i see ( I am a noob) the ram is the thing that dosent perform well

Your ram supports 3600mhz mode.
What happens, when you enable xmp and set ram to 3600mhz?

Yeah they support Xmp and 3600mhz but when i set it from the bios the system is not starting
i've tried a even 3200 but the max that i can go it's 3000 whit xmp disabled


Maybe them are not compatible whit my mobo?

Use one stick of ram in slot a2 see what xmp does.

Then swap sticks and repeat the test.

Whenever i turn on Xmp 1 it does crash
i've tried even whit xmp 2

The only way that i can tweak it's setting manually to 3000 but whitout XMP

Checkhing on the asus website about compatibilities i can't found the ram that i have on atm
i think that's the real problem

Memoryclock in the 10700K is standard rated for 2933 MT/s. Anything above is an OC and not guaranteed. You could have lost the silicon lotery with that CPU.

Do not disable XMP.
Enable XMP and then change dram frequency.

I've done it but it's crashing the same

You mean that i cant go over 3k even if I change ram?

Are you doing this with one stick of ram like I asked?
