System restarts due to BIOS issues
System restarts due to BIOS issues
Your system keeps restarting despite BIOS settings. I stabilized it by adjusting core voltage to around 1.2V–1.275V and turning off XMP. You can now run memory at full speed (3200MHz) manually, but it crashes again when launching games. Recent BIOS updates seem to have caused issues—flashing new ones, rolling back, resetting BIOS, lowering clock speed to 3GHz, swapping RAM slots, and keeping CPU temps between 45–50°C with the stock cooler. This suggests a possible BIOS configuration problem rather than a hardware fault.
They're in A2/B2, and I relocated them to new positions, though I believe that happened prior to adjusting the undervolt.
