I use the X670e TUF Plus with Wi-Fi, paired with a Ryzen 7700X and two Corsair Vengeance DDR5 sticks at 5600MHz (XMP rated). I just upgraded the BIOS to the newest release yesterday, aiming to avoid CPU issues mentioned in recent reports about overheating or long-term damage from high voltage. After the update, the XMP profile was changed to DOCP only. Now, when I turn it off, the PC performs a hard reset and fails to boot into Windows—only launching when DOCP is disabled. I’m unsure what to do next; should I wait for a BIOS update or try other solutions? PD: My current BIOS version is 1616, the latest available for my motherboard.
Considering a fresh BIOS update is one option, but I’d prefer to configure the XMP profile myself. Disable DOCP, manually adjust memory frequency to 5600, apply primary timings of 36-36-36-76 (based on their ratings), and configure memory voltages (VDDIO_MEM, DRAM_VDD, DRAM_VDDQ) to 1.25V or the specified limits. Adjust VSOC to 1.2V, which should suffice for DDR5 5600 booting.
I believe doing that would likely result in a permanent failure from my mother. The earlier version using XMP was functioning well, but I updated it specifically to avoid any risk of CPU or motherboard issues due to overvoltage.
