Yes, it's either 1 or 2 as you stated. The first option matches a ratio of 1.4, while the second suggests 1.35. Clarify which fits your setup.
It’s unlikely to make a big difference, but generally you aim for consistency.
It’s likely safe to configure the CPU VDDIO to 1.4V, as it’s the maximum voltage you can apply. Lowering it to 1.35V is also an option, but your question about testing at 1.35V is valid—some kits perform well at that level. Buidlzoid’s experience suggests it’s fine.
The safe setting is around 1.4V, which is the default when EXPO/XMP is active for the 1.4V models. It might not always need to stay exactly at 1.4V. The 1.35V suggestion came from typical DDR5 6000 CL30 kits being rated at that level, ensuring compatibility. Originally it was tried at 1.4V but should function there too.
Hello! I’m still facing problems with system stability—freezes in BIOS and bluescreens when starting up or using Windows. I think the RAM might be the cause. Both the Corsair 6000MHz 96GB (QVL) and 6400MHz 96GB (not QVL) kits have the same issue. I’m considering switching to a different RAM package to check if it resolves the problem. Would you recommend either of these options:
1. Gskill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6400 (2x48GB, CL32-39-39-102, 1.35V) – set it manually to 6000 MHz in 1:1 mode. This model is on QVL at 6400 MHz.
2. Kingston FURY RGB DDR5-6000 (2x48GB, CL32-38-38, 1.35V) – not on QVL.
Also, do you expect these kits to actually help with my stability issues, given they likely share the same Hynix M dimmer settings? Or should I consider returning the mainboard and SSD for a replacement?
