Anyone using this memory @ 6000mhz or higher? I'm using the standard XMP settings in the profile @6000MHZ, and its really hit or miss during gaming. Rarely crashes playing Forza horizon 5, It doesn't like Dota2 however. I can run Timespy benchmarks no issues, PC always boots etc... just doesn't like gaming lol. I recently did a bios update and tried to run it @ 6200, Timespy benchmark was no problem using the XMP Booster, timings of 40-40-40-80 @ 1.35v. But during gameplay @ 6200 was the same result as 6000 with random crashing. Stock timing of the memory is 40-40-40-76 @ 1.35v, and the MB has it listed as a supported module (Aorus Z-690 Ultra F24 Bios) Up to 6200MHZ O.C. Trying to avoid buying more memory but not opposed to it if I can't find a solution.

Do you have a link to the ram kit you're using? When you performed a BIOS update to successfully be on the latest version, did you clear the CMOS before you proceeded to overclock the ram?

And correct CMOS was cleared, As far as Bios Features that have been changed they're pretty basic.

Enabled Insta 6GHZ
4G Encoding enabled for Resizeable bar etc... attached below are some photos of the bios settings for the memory.
