Hello, I'm trying to figure out if the problem lies with the board or the CPU. I recently purchased a 9900K and swapped in an 8700K. I'm using a Z370 chipset board and updated the BIOS to support 9th gen/8-core processors. The 8700K worked fine for setting my RAM XMP profile to 3000MHz, but now after upgrading the CPU, my PC keeps restarting and I can't access the BIOS. Every time I change something, I have to remove the CMOS battery to reset the motherboard.

Motherboard: Asrock Z370 Extreme4
RAM: G.skil Trident Z RGB DDR4-3000MHz CL14-14-14-34 1.35V 32GB (2x16GB)
CPU: Intel i9 9900K

Best, KwlioZ
