Hi, I just purchased a 64gb kit of ram for my desktop computer, upgrading from 16gb. My specs are:
I7-8700k
Asus prime z370-p
Gtx 1060 6gb
Windows 10
I was using Corsair vengeance rgb pro 16gb (2x8) @3000MHz and I upgraded to Corsair vengeance rgb pro 64gb (2x32)@3200MHz. Initially I swapped the 16 for the 64, going all in, and immediately I had boot issues. Windows 10 was blue screening before getting to the login page, and had different errors every time. So I pulled the 64 out, tried different slots. I use either slot 1 and 3 or 2 and 4. Made no difference.
I pulled one of the 32 sticks out and then my computer booted, fast as usual, and repeatedly with no issues. I then swapped the sticks to try the other and the same thing happened, I am now booting every time and everything seems to work.
I do not have xmp enabled, I reset the bios to default settings, and I took the cmos battery out also to see if that would make a difference. When using the full 64gb, my computer is not booting. Using only 32, seems fine. Anyone know what I need to do to make this work?
I am currently at work, and have left my computer running with only 32gb in it -and a stopwatch on so when I get home I can see I it ran the entire time. I think it will. I will test the ram later, but I don’t think it’s faulty.
I googled my board and I read it supports up to 64gb of ram also. So I’m unsure of what to do next other than try installing windows 10 to a different drive with the 64gb installed and see if it boots after a clean installation, which I will test later. But if I can keep my OS intact I would prefer to. Any help is appreciated.
