I possess a unit 2x8 Trident Z 3600CL18 that struggles to maintain stability with XMP and its specified timings. I activated the XMP profile 1 (18-22-22-42 at 1.35v). Occasionally, when I'm on the desktop, my screen would briefly go black for a few seconds before recovering. This made me believe it was unstable. My next idea was to adjust the timings and voltages manually. After restarting at 1.35v, I tried running Cyberpunk to test stability, but the game would crash immediately. I increased the voltage to 1.37v, which worsened the issue—my PC crashed with a BSOD. When I raised it to 1.39v, the system froze completely. Eventually, lowering the voltage back to 1.30v resolved the problem, and everything ran smoothly for about 30 minutes of Cyberpunk. No black screens or crashes occurred. Could anyone clarify what’s happening and why this is occurring? I’m new to RAM overclocking, so I came here seeking guidance. Thanks in advance for your help! Have a great day!
