I come from an older DDR3 setup and didn’t switch to DDR4, so I’m unfamiliar with memory configurations. I just assembled this yesterday without testing anything thoroughly. I only used the Expo profiles. The first one failed to boot and led me to the BIOS screen for an error. The second worked but was only tested for a short time, so its stability isn’t clear. I wanted to check if enabling certain BIOS settings is necessary because others with similar configurations ran successfully. Now I have the F2 BIOS version, but saw F6B on the site. Should I upgrade immediately or wait until every three updates?

It doesn't indicate a requirement for updates in stages; you can proceed directly to the newest release. The most recent version likely offers better memory support and stability with the EXPO 1 profile, making it a good starting point first.

I switched straight to F6b and it starts at 6000MHz. I’ll see if it’s reliable, but thank you!
