Hello! I just put together a new PC with these details. While trying to activate XMP on the motherboard, I ran into a problem. It’s a Mini ITX build with only two DIMM slots, but the board does support XMP and claims RAM speeds up to 6000MHz via XMP. I tried enabling both XMP1 and XMP2, but the system wouldn’t boot. Luckily, using an EXPO profile set the memory speed to 5600MHz, which worked fine. If you need your RAM to run at 6000MHz, what should I do?

Have you looked for the latest BIOS updates on gigabytes sites? There are several mentions of improved RAM compatibility. (You can also review the memory support list on the support page for your specific model.) Make sure to verify the model and revision numbers before updating, as installing the wrong BIOS can cause serious issues.
