Hi guys.
So I recently upgraded my RAM, changed to three LL120 fans and got a CableMod pro extension kit as well as an M.2 drive.
My system was running perfectly fine before and I had overclocks on it, as well as XMP enabled.
When trying to post system with my upgraded specs, first, the CPU temperature would slowly increase untill I turned it off, with AIO fans spinning wildly. After a couple of hours of trying to make it not behave like this, I gave up taking the CMOS battery out and waited till morning to come back to it.
So morning comes. At the start I was trying to run my initial OC profile, with XMP on, and I quickly found that this was the main problem, as when I turned it on for 3200Mhz, it would say “"your previous overclocking has failed" f1 to load default values f2 to continue with the set up”.
turning on XMP to 3066 (and 3000) actually worked, and it posted. This got me into Windows, with temps of 45C, and then slowly cooling down to 35C.
So now I have this problem with my RAM (old and new) not being able to support a 3200 XMP OC, and when I do select 3200, the CPU gets HOT (60-70-80,90, within minutes).
What is causing XMP to not be stable on 3200? Why is my CPU getting so hot? What have I done wrong?
Ive cleared CMOS, reinstalled AIO...
PC specs are as follows
MSI 1070 8GB
i56600k
MSI Z170a M5
Corsair H100i v2
Corsair Vengeance 16GB 3200 —> Corsair Vengeance RGB pro 32GB 3200
Corsair 650 PSU
3 Corsair AF120 —> LL120
