Hello guys!

This is my first time posting/asking a question here. Since I'm not super into PC building but I want to maintain and upgrade/build my own rig, I bought a new pair of RAM sticks.


My new RAM has a XMP profile which clocks it to 3200mhz, but if I enable XMP it doesn't boot. The problem isn't getting trough post, it's booting into windows.

If you guys have any ideas or advice, I'd be happy to listen and try it :)

I'll put my specs below:

CPU: Intel Core i7-12700k (Currently after many bios resets at base clock)
CPU COOLER: Corsair iCUE H150i RGB PRO XT 360mm
MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Elite (DDR4)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz C16 XMP 2.0 (CMW16GX4M2C3200C16)
GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 1070 8GB Video Card
STORAGE: 2 x M.2 drives
PSU: EVGA 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply
