I've gradually increased my RAM speed. It became fully stable at 2800mhz after testing with memtest, Prime95 and RealBench. I adjusted the DRAM frequency but kept BCLK unchanged.
Attempted to raise it further to 3000mhz, but the system crashed and the motherboard LED lit up. Clearing CMOS didn't help this time; the DRAM LED stayed off while the Boot device LED illuminated.
Tried disconnecting the battery, resetting CMOS, swapping batteries (following manual steps), but nothing worked.
Still no clear solution.
🙁
Any suggestions?

Additional attempts made: testing each RAM module individually, placing them in different slots, disconnecting the HDD.
