Hi! I see you're dealing with some tricky issues on your PC. It sounds like the recent changes—like enabling a DOCP profile and overclocking your GPU—may have triggered instability. After rebooting, turning off BIOS, resetting the GPU, and still facing freezing when launching games, it’s clear something is affecting system performance. The warnings about DistributedCOM and errors in Schannel suggest a deeper configuration conflict. Since you mentioned similar problems before with a DOCP profile, it might help to double-check your BIOS settings and ensure all drivers are up to date. Also, try disabling the DOCP profile temporarily to see if that resolves the freezing. If the issue persists, consider checking for hardware conflicts or updating your system firmware.
Consider verifying your board's QVL list for the exact SKU of your RAM. Previously, some unexpected problems arose from items not properly cataloged as QVL. This situation is increasingly common. Also, keep in mind that faulty RAM can still be present even if it appears in the QVL. Assume that matching DIMMs listed as QVL at one capacity should match your setup as well. Rely on XMP or DOCP settings only for timing accuracy—manual configuration was necessary after resolving the QVL issue with properly listed RAM.
QVL stands for Qualified Vendor Lists, which are collections of RAM and other parts that manufacturers promise will work well with your board. To locate the right list for your model, visit the manufacturer’s website and look for a 'Support' section. There you’ll find options to explore processors, RAM SKUs, and related components. These lists can vary depending on the processor type, with separate sections for storage and RAM. The RAM part number, or SKU, is typically listed in small text on the DIMMs or on the packaging. Match this code to the QVL list; if it’s missing, the component may not be stable. For your setup—a Rog Strix B450-F Gaming with a 2700X Ryzen processor—here’s a direct link to the relevant list: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/So..._4DIMM.pdf
The problem seems related to QVL (Quality Version List) RAM settings. After using the system for over two years without issues, enabling the XMP profile might have triggered an inconsistency. You can try adjusting or resetting the QVL configuration to see if that resolves the issue.
You're likely dealing with a mix of issues—possibly faulty RAM, overheating, or unstable timing. It's not uncommon for hardware to fail after overclocking. Check the RAM for proper installation and test stability again. If problems persist, timing components might need adjustment or replacement.
If it works without XMP enabled, it implies the RAM might be problematic for overclocking. You may still need better RAM to ensure stability, but it’s not mandatory if it functions properly.
The memory might become unreliable during overclocking, suggesting a possible flaw in the product despite its compatibility claims. Updated September 2, 2022 by An0maly_76 Added further details
