Question When using EXPO Profile with G.Skill RAM, my PC crashes ?

[Blackapino]

I recently Purchased DDR5 Ram from G Skillz and I went into the BIOS and changed it too 6000MHz as it https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-32gb-ddr5-6000/p/N82E16820374428?Item=N82E16820374428 which is in the QVL list and it seems too too Crash my PC when I use the Profile and The MOB I am using is a https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-b650e-f-gaming-wifi-model/ I'm Not Sure why it does this but when I leave it in the Normal Default Profile My PC works Fine. Any reasons as to why it works in Default Profile and when in EXPO?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

What BIOS version are you currently on for your motherboard? Are the rams populating slots A2 and B2 on your motherboard?

Have you enabled the EXPO profile in the bios? If you put the RAM into the slots & boot up into windows without doing this it will run at the JEDEC default 4800MT/s speed. Also check that your motherboard has the most updated official bios as well.

I had expo enabled on my current rig in the sig. For months I was blaming win 11, ram etc. Turns out it was expo all along. I disabled expo and the pc does not crash anymore.

A bit extra speed was not worth it IMO.

Yeah I used EXPO Profile 2 and at 5000Mhz and so far so good but I didn't buy correct RAM for My MOB but so far I haven't had any issues with my G Skillz RAM

Yeah When I first started My Build back in 2020 when I learned about how to get more speed out of my RAM that I purchased and kinda Stuck with it lmao. But yeah 5000Mhz is Fast enough even though it's rated at 6000Mhz
