Windows doesn't start properly or crashes after increasing RAM speed. Need some guidance.
I worked on this setup for nearly a year and faced overclocking problems consistently. My components are standard: a Ryzen 5 2600X CPU, G.Skill Ripjaw V 3200Mhz with 16GB RAM, an RX 580 8GB GPU, and a GigaByte B450 DS3H motherboard. When I leave RAM in auto mode in BIOS, everything functions normally at around 2100Mhz. Enabling XMP triggers a recovery mode in Windows, but if I manually push the RAM to 3200Mhz, the system boots but crashes when RAM load drops. I've set the voltage to 1.35 as recommended for my RAM, yet issues persist. My power supply is solid at 600W, but I'm unsure what's causing the instability. Anyone have insights?
