Do you know the exact RAM installed? Make sure it fits the proper slots. Providing full component model numbers would be useful. Also share the BIOS version and any relevant firmware details.

Yes, DDR5 is still developing and hasn't reached full maturity. You're technically pushing RAM beyond its JEDEC guidelines. Enterprises avoid XMP/EXPO because it doesn't match the stability standards set by JEDEC. The focus isn't mainly on high-end motherboards—it's more about CPU memory controllers. Intel and AMD have taken different approaches to DDR5. Intel prioritizes high bandwidth, while AMD emphasizes lower latency. Early chips like the 12900K were built for both, but they struggled with control. Your parts are tailored for DDR5, making them the best available right now. Four sticks are usually not stable yet, but I hope stability improves in about six months. This is still a guess, though.

What rate should I use? Four sticks seem fine, maybe XMP works too... AMD has been dealing with this for a while, especially with Ryzen CPUs and threadripper models. A quick search before buying RAM could have helped a lot. You can definitely get the maximum possible RAM, but it requires some work. If speed is important, jdec RAM is a solid choice as well. It’s more stable overall. You don’t need to go overboard—just buy XMP and leave it stock. It’s cheaper and still performs well enough. No app really cares about RAM speed anyway.

Note: The Nvidia error you mentioned is common when RAM causes data corruption, making it seem like the GPU is at fault. It can also affect hard drives, so replacing the RAM quickly is usually the best option.

You have 32gigs of Trident Z DDR4 that are still in good condition. They aren’t Samsung, so you might want to be careful handling them. The 5800X3D should work fine with them.

That's four sticks correct? Running them at speeds higher than the JEDEC default like 4800MHz means you're likely to face instability with DDR5. Especially if they weren't sold in a four-stick package. This issue seems tied to DDR5 itself. Try lowering your RAM speed, remove any EXPO or XMP settings, and see how it affects things. The board doesn’t seem to have much impact on this problem. The most affordable B650 or the priciest high-end board won't help here—the controller for modern chips is actually on the CPU.

No problem, just two 48GB drives listed for the motherboard so it meets the approved specs.

6400mhz with just two sticks. Mobo mentioned compatibility up to 196gb, but I checked before buying the board and RAM to confirm. XMP is Intel, and the RAM is EXPO for AMD. I plan to take out the GPU and switch to a single stick of RAM first, then replace it. It was costly, and if it doesn’t work, I’ll consider a refund. These aren’t cheap upgrades.

Absolutely, cutting-edge ideas. Definitely give it a shot with a single stick and shut down the expo.

CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR5 RAM 96GB (2x48GB) 6400MHz CL32 CMK96GX5M2B6400C32 BIOS was 1203 initially, then upgraded to 1605, and now it's the newest 1715 version.

I've removed all NVIDIA audio drivers following a suggestion from a forum post. Since then there have been no more crashes or screen flickering. I plan to continue using this setup for a while and then test by disabling RAM and possibly the GPU. I'll keep you updated!
