I purchased a fresh set of RAM, specifically 3200Mhz XPG STTicks 16x2. I recall doing a memory test with my previous sticks many years ago, but I can't confirm it with complete certainty. However, I believe I've never encountered any problems when running them at their rated speed. With the new kit, I opted for XMP profile and tested those speeds, which triggered numerous memory errors in both OCCT and Memtest. I experimented with other speeds, and they improved as the rates dropped. When I set the sticks to 3200Mhz at 1.37v, the errors vanished on OCCT (I didn’t run Memtest because both issues appeared quickly). After that, I increased the speed to 3600Mhz at 1.43v, and the memory tests showed no problems. I haven’t adjusted CPU or RAM speeds since then. Recently, I ran OCCT again and was hit with errors once more. What might be causing this? I still have the warranty on the RAM but prefer not to risk weeks without them, especially since I rely on my PC for work. CPU: R5 5600 RAM: XPG D35 32GB 16x2 3200Mhz CL:16 Mobo: B350m-PRO-VDH (latest BIOS)
