Hello, I received a Huananzhi x99 f8 motherboard from China with an e5 xeon v3 processor. I'm setting up a budget-friendly but stylish system and purchased four RGB DDR4 dimms from Corsair (Vengeance RGB Pro SL 8Gb x4). Before buying, I learned that you don't necessarily need a modern RGB motherboard to use them, as they can be adjusted in Windows with Icue software. However: surprise! Icue didn't recognize my RAM. They're still working, showing the default rainbow lighting, but I can't configure them through Icue at all—whether I tried Icue 4, Icue 3, or the Corsair website gave no results. In a chat on Discord, someone suggested enabling "DRAM SPD WRITE," but this option isn't listed in the BIOS (maybe I'm not looking in the right place). Could you have any advice? In my opinion, if the RAM is functioning and displaying the default rainbow lights, why can't it be set up properly?

You're experiencing the same problem with the same configuration on both devices. Is there any update or solution that has been applied so far?
