Hi there, my successful jump from 3.5ghz to 4.00ghz worked well with my Hyper 212 Evo and M5A97 R2 EVO 6.2 Power phase board temps staying under 65 degrees, which is satisfactory for now. The main issue is that my RAM fails to boot during overclocking attempts. I'm setting it at its rated speed of 2400mhz (CORSAIR DDR3), but it won't even enter BIOS when I press F1. Then everything resets back to default. Why does the RAM not boot at all, even with overclock applied? It boots normally when the CPU is back to factory settings at 3.5ghz. Any suggestions? I've disabled cooling and kept all other settings unchanged except for the CPU voltage, power supply is 1000 watts. Thanks.

I created this manually or automatically? My voltage is stable. Your RAM might need adjustments—lower the Memory Divider and ensure it's above 1866 to run at 1.6v, not 1.5v. Please check the details here.
