Hello!
So a want to buy a new pc. I collected all parts, watched a lot of tests and its looked good. But before the purchase I found a few older forum commnets about the Gigabyte x99-ud4 motherboard and I canceled the purchase.
So around 2015 (according to the comments and my research) there was a lot of problem with the UD4 board when XMP was enabled, like boot loops and shutdowns at higher XMP profiles.
Since 2015 there was a a few BIOS updates for the motherboard, but i can't confirm if the XMP problem is still there. For RAM I want to buy G.SKILL 16GB Ripjaws V DDR4 3000MHz CL15 KIT F4-3000C15D-16GVRB.
I hope someone can help me if its safe to buy the UD4 board with this RAM, or its got solved with the BIOS updates. Or should i go with slower RAM.
Here is the complete setup:
CPU: INTEL Core i7-6800K 3.40GHz 2011-3
CPU cooler: COOLERMASTER Hyper 212X RR-212X-17PK-R1
RAM: G.SKILL 16GB Ripjaws V DDR4 3000MHz CL15 KIT F4-3000C15D-16GVRB
VGA: MSI GTX 1070 GAMING X 8G GTX1070 8GB GDDR5 PCIE
PSU: Thermaltake Berlin 630W
Case: FRACTAL DESIGN Define R5
I hope I'm not just too paranoid about this and it wasn't a noob question.
Thanks for any kind of help!
