PC restarts repeatedly following a "non risky" installation process
Sohom :
Your RAM is running overclocked beyond what's safe. Ryzen CPUs have caused issues when RAM speeds exceed 2933 MHz. Try setting it to 2933 MHz and observe the change...
What? I mentioned I had 2933, but if you think I actually have 3000, that's just because it's closest to 2933. It's more accurate to say it's around 3000 since it's nearest. I also noted the system worked fine for a week using 2933 MHz from the XMP profile provided by the builders who tested my rig.
Read my comment. Your speed is inconsistent.
As I previously wrote,
"The final thing I could suggest is resetting the CMOS and defaulting it. Check if it boots. 3000 MHz is a tricky adjustment and may not be stable with that RAM, given its maximum tested speed. RAMs come out of the box at their rated speed (SPD), needing specific voltage. To run at rated speed, it must be manually configured in BIOS and use the correct voltage. If that doesn't work, it could indicate a hardware issue—probably your RAM or motherboard, hopefully nothing else."
2133mhz is your actual rate
Check your RAM specifications here"
I attempted to adjust the BIOS settings by disabling the "overclock" profile from 2933mhz to off (possibly auto), and the system didn’t reboot three times—it started normally. This resolved my immediate issue, but it didn’t fix the problem that the profile was active at first, which could cause repeated loops for weeks or even months. It’s frustrating because I paid for a 3000mhz RAM, which worked before, but now it doesn’t. I’m wondering if using the built-in profile should still be an option, or if the manufacturer would have contacted me earlier. I can’t share a picture, but according to their site, this motherboard supports up to 3200mhz overclocking, so I’m unsure why it wouldn’t work with my RAM. Also, the Ryzen max speed is 2667mhz, which feels like the issue—shouldn’t I lower that instead? But since I’ve been using 2933, why would I switch to 2667?
Someone mentioned that your RAM speed is overclocked too high. Ryzen CPUs have shown instability when RAM speeds exceed 2933 MHz. They suggest setting it to 2933 MHz and checking if it improves stability...? What? I just said I had 2933, but if you think I actually have 3000, that’s just because it’s the closest to 2933, and it’s most relevant to say it’s around 3000. Since it’s the nearest number, they prefer to refer to it as 3000. They also noted that your computer ran fine for a week using 2933 MHz from the XMP profile set by the builders who tested your machine.
OP Read my post. Your speed is unstable
As I mentioned earlier
"The last thing I could say is try that CMOS and default it. See if it boots. 3000mhz is an awkward OC and might not be stable for RAM seeing how that is its max tested speed, which means it’s the farthest you can push that RAM. Memory straight out of the box runs at the specified SPD speed (stock speed) and needs the correct voltage. For memory to run at its rated speed it must be manually set in BIOS and requires the correct voltage. If nothing else works then the latter result is a defect. You’d just have to check if it’s your RAM or motherboard, hopefully nothing else."
They added: 2133mhz is your actual speed
See your RAM specs here

They pointed out an important detail: the computer was built and tested by the company, which overclocked the RAM to the desired speeds using the correct voltage. After setting it as an XMP profile for two weeks, they couldn’t pinpoint the issue—whether a BIOS error or gradual instability. They suggested it could be a defect, but they’re not blaming the manufacturer. xD
Again, 3000mhz is the officially rated speed, not the actual performance. Those RAM modules are built to operate at 2133mhz in stock. 3000mhz represents the upper limit you can achieve. You’ve already adjusted them to 2933; going higher would need increased voltage and careful testing. That’s already a challenging adjustment, especially since 3000mhz is inherently difficult to overclock.
Contact the manufacturer and ask for a refund on those sticks. Honestly, you’re already at the stable maximum of 2933.
Please check your RAM specifications for more details.
Again, 3000mhz is the officially rated speed, not the actual performance. Those RAM sticks are built to operate at 2133mhz by default. 3000mhz is the upper limit you can achieve, but you need to increase the voltage. Going beyond that would require careful testing and might not be safe. Since 3000mhz is already a challenging overclock, it’s not an easy task. Contact the manufacturer and ask for a refund on those sticks. Honestly, you’re already at the highest stable setting of 2933. I understand your point, but don’t take it too seriously—you’ve also managed to run 2933 without changing it. Just check the link (sorry for the Swedish) and note that the title says 3000Mhz and the specs mention 1,35V. You’re wondering if you bought something at 3000mhz but can’t use it because of speed limits? If so, you’ll have to accept slower speeds and deal with that.

3000mhz is the officially rated speed, not the actual performance speed. Those RAM sticks are built to operate at 2133mhz by default. 3000mhz represents the maximum capacity you can achieve. You've already adjusted them to 2933, which is a higher setting. Going beyond that would need increased voltage and careful testing—otherwise it's not recommended.
If you contact the manufacturer, ask for a refund on those sticks. Honestly, you're already at the upper limit with 2933 stable.
I understand what you're saying, but please don't misinterpret. I've also tested 2933mhz and haven't changed them to that speed. Check the link (sorry for the Swedish), but the title says 3000Mhz, and the specification notes mention 1.35V. So you're asking if I bought something at 3000mhz, but it's not compatible.
The 1.35 setting keeps them stable at 2133mhz. 3000mhz isn't a reliable speed, and 2933 is not the same as 3000mhz. You might find the option in your BIOS, but it doesn't mean you can push it further. Also, you need to consider the voltage requirements for 2933.
1.2 could run at 2133mhz, but it won't be stable if you try to set it to 2933. It's possible the BIOS allows that option, but it won't work with a 1.2 setting at 2933.
As for your OC profile, I'm not sure it was altered. When you entered the BIOS, it was always set to 2133mhz initially.

Once more, 3000mhz is the officially rated speed, not the actual performance speed. Those RAM modules are built to operate at 2133mhz by default. 3000mhz represents the maximum capacity you can achieve with them. You've already adjusted them to 2933, which is a higher setting. Going beyond that would need increased voltage, and without thorough testing, it's unlikely you'll reach it safely.
Consider reaching out to the manufacturer for a refund on those RAM sticks. Honestly, you're already at the upper limit with a stable 2933 setting.
I understand your point, but please don't misinterpret my stance. I've also tested running at 2933 without modifying them to that speed. The link provided mentions a 1.35V specification, which aligns with what you're seeing. It seems the product description lists 3000mhz at 1.35V, but in reality, it's more accurate to say 3000mhz is the intended maximum under stable conditions.
The 1.35V setting supports 2133mhz stability, not 2933. You might find this option in your system settings, but it won't allow you to exceed 2933 without adjusting voltage and risking instability.
Also, keep in mind that the voltage required for 2933 is 1.35V, which matches what's shown in the specifications. This suggests the product was designed with that configuration in mind.
Motherboards are limited to a certain performance level, and I’m unsure how you came across this information. This site seems incorrect. Corsair does not produce RAM sticks with those specifications. I’m browsing their official page to verify the details. The RAM model listed matches what you have in your system.
The motherboards are designed for a particular speed, and I’m not sure where or how you came across this information. This site seems incorrect. Corsair does not produce RAM sticks with those specifications. I’m checking the actual Corsair website to review the same products. I believe you were misled to be honest about it.
Here’s the link to the product page: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/vengeance-l...m2b3000c15
Please also review this site and verify the specifications. This is the RAM you have installed in your computer. I copied the model number from that page to Corsair’s site, and these are the genuine specifications.
I’m confident I wasn’t taken advantage of, as it comes from a reputable company (Sweden, Norway, etc.) and the details match what I expect. What exactly are you questioning about?
It also says on there RATED speed and SPD Speed. The 1.2 Correlates with the 2133mhz speed. I assure you i know what im talking about. Is it not possible they uploaded the wrong Specs to their website? You say CL15 but no such ram exists its only a C15 type ram. Corsair made the ram im pretty sure i would rely on the corsair website over this 3rd party website that just sells the equipment that Corsair makes.
