Ram: G.Skills 17-17-17-37 @1.35v (4x8GB) Motherboard: Asus Extreme PSU: 1200w full load. I attempted to increase voltage to the RAM up to 1.40v but it didn’t help.

Seems to be the Trident Z Royal model: https://www.gskill.com/product/165/299/1...GB-(4x8GB). Not listed on the Maximus XII Extreme's QVL.
I'll run it. A bit of memory training is needed. We'll gradually bring the board up to requirements. XMP should be set, and the frequency at 3600mhz is manual. Expect possible delays—maybe a restart is required. The boards aren't in the QVL but function properly.
