It simply indicates your OC is inconsistent. When adjusting the CPU OC, switch off XMP initially, only reactivate it after completing the tuning process. Ensure stability first; otherwise, there are more variables involved. Verify the Load Line of Calibration and adjust accordingly to prevent significant voltage drops under load. If BSOD persists, raise the voltage gradually—typically by 0.25V each time until stable, then reduce incrementally for fine-tuning. Only after achieving a stable CPU should you enable XMP and perform a stress test to confirm stability. Sometimes activating XMP causes instability; in such cases, increase VCCIO and VCCSA.

You can inquire about the reason XMP isn't activated. Your memory performance is quite close to two-thirds of its maximum capacity. Try using OCCT or Afterburner and perform a CPU stress test—what is your vcore? A blue screen may occur if voltage is insufficient. Your automatic setting seems to begin at 1.3V (or possibly the upper limit), but it's important to check how high it reaches during load. You might need to adjust the vcore manually for stability. There isn't a clear definitive answer online, though some users have reached up to 1.4V. However, increasing voltage also increases heat generation.
It simply indicates your OC is inconsistent. When adjusting the CPU OC, turn XMP off initially, only activate it after confirming stability. Ensure the Calibration Load Line is set properly to prevent excessive voltage drops during load. If BSOD persists, raise the voltage gradually—typically by 0.25V increments until stable, then reduce slowly for fine-tuning. Once a stable CPU is achieved, enable XMP and perform a stress test to confirm reliability. Sometimes activating XMP causes instability; in such cases, adjusting VCCIO and VCCSA may be necessary. Kaby Lake performs better than Skylake in memory handling.
