Dear All,
PCPartPicker part list: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/CfWLxr
CPU: Intel Core i7-5820K 3.3GHz 6-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i 77.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Asus RAMPAGE V EXTREME EATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR4-2400 Memory
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 500GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 4GB WINDFORCE Video Card (2-Way SLI)
Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 4GB WINDFORCE Video Card (2-Way SLI)
Case: NZXT Phantom 820 (Black) ATX Full Tower Case
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA 1000G2 1000W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive: Asus BW-12B1ST/BLK/G/AS Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer
Monitor: Asus ROG SWIFT PG278Q 144Hz 27.0" Monitor
So I have this problem when I restart my PC, it fails to post and the fans keep spinning hardly. The only solution is to press the "Clear CMOS" button on my mobo, then the system will boot normally.
I am kind of a person who never shutdown his PC and keeps it running for months, and upon restarting the PC for installing new software or updates, it hangs and fail to post with Q-Code "B1" and the DRAM led switched ON. (Solid RED)
This made me believe that the problem is from the RAMs, so I reinstalled them and updated the BIOS to its latest version (ver. 3202). yet the problem still exists.
However, if i restart my PC frequently (after clearing CMOS on the first post failure), the PC boot up normally. But if i left my PC running for more than 3 days lets say, upon restarting it fails to post I have to clear CMOS again.
My PC is running on stock speeds, although i did some CPU overclocking in the past.
With or without XMP the problem still exist. Everything else is set to auto.
Edit #1: Removing and installing all the RAM sticks is an alternate (temp) workaround to get my PC to post. (However, clearing the CMOS is much easier and yet the problem still exist). My assumption now is "If all modules work alone than logic conclusion is that motherboard make problem with communication when memory is in quad channel or some of DIMM slots is not good. "
what do you guys think ?
I hope that I made it clear and sorry for many grammatical mistakes.
Regards,
