Hello everyone, I faced an issue with the RAM I installed. The default frequency was set to 3600MHz, causing blue screens and crashes during gaming or under stress. After a lot of troubleshooting and around ten Windows 10 reinstalls, I manually adjusted it to 3200MHz. Once that was done, after several months without any issues, I noticed some performance slowdowns. Looking into tech resources, I decided to check with CPU-Z to verify the RAM status. This raised doubts about whether the frequency was correct or if CPU-Z was inaccurate. MOBO: MAG Z590 TOMAHAWK WIFI (MS-7D08) Processor : 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-11900K @ 3.50GHz, 3504Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s). RAM: Corsair Vengance LPX 64GB 4 x 16GB DDR4 Dram 3600mhz if you could confirm and reassure me that the memory is running at the intended speed of 3200MHz. Please let me know in the thread if you need more details. Thanks a lot! ***** You NOVATECH, you're right to question the 3600MHz setting for this model.

It could be either its dual level or the worst scenario quad level, which is significantly more challenging for the IMC than a single level increase. Raising VCC and VCO by 0.1V together with adjusting RAM voltage to 1.4V should enable it to function properly.

Following the additional check, it seems I received the incorrect RAM.
