Activating OC profiles on the MB leads to visual problems.
Hello, I'm here to assist you with your PC setup. Your specs look solid—i5-12600K, MSI Z690, DDR4 2x8GB, 3200MHz RAM. You've checked drivers and BIOS, and even reset CMOS which helped temporarily. After restarting and enabling XMP/CPU OC in BIOS, the second monitor still fails to appear. Since you're using a good monitor with HDMI and a decent one for your old one, it seems the issue might be with the second monitor's connection or driver settings. Have you tried using a different HDMI cable or port? Also, ensure your graphics card supports XMP profiles and that the system is properly configured for dual monitors. Let me know if you need further guidance!
Begin fresh with standard default settings and XMP enabled only. This should restore the original configuration without any additional changes from the device. The issue seems unusual—HDMI output and input should function normally, but the driver might be faulty. Consider reinstalling the GPU drivers from scratch to resolve potential problems.
These generally aren't ideal, often delivering excessive voltage to the CPU beyond what's needed, leading to much higher temperatures with minimal performance gains. At times, they apply overly aggressive configurations, making only the top 5% of processors capable of activating them and even then succeeding. Stick with the stock settings or try manual CPU overclocking instead. Avoid anything in between. Regarding XMP, if it wasn't the correct profile, adjusting memory settings manually might help—consider setting frequency to 3200, timings 16-20-20-38 (possibly a different sequence), and voltage at 1.35V. This should theoretically assist.
You're welcome! I've restored the BIOS to its default settings and turned on XMP automatically. Following your advice from SkilledRebuilds paid off—configurations helped, but now everything runs smoothly at box speeds. Appreciate your patience!
