Question Enabling XMP disables the motherboard’s rear USB-C port ?

[Firebolt1]

Hello,

I have an MSI MAG Z690 TOMAHAWK WIFI motherboard with Corsair 64GB KIT DDR5 6200MHz CL32 Vengeance Black RAM. Yesterday I purchased the Creative Pebble X speakers and found out that when I use the motherboard’s rear USB-C port for my speakers, the speakers don't work if XMP is enabled in BIOS. However, the USB-C port on the case works fine.

I have updated BIOS, all possible drivers, and I have also tried manually setting only the RAM to 6200MHz with the same result. The only way the speakers will work when plugged in to the rear USB-C port is when there is no OC in BIOS.

Has anyone ever seen this before?

Odd. Should contact Msi and report back here of your findings. Very odd indeed and not something I've come across.

I wanted to edit the post but it seems like at the same time it was edited by someone else, so I’d just like to add here that it doesn’t really disable the port because if I plug my phone in to that same port it actually works. So It’s just the speakers that don't work in that port when XMP is enabled.

It's still odd lol. I believe only Msi can answer you this one.
