XMP activated isn't allowing the system to start.
Hey there. I just finished setting up my build. I'm trying to turn on XMP in BIOS, but after enabling it the PC won't start unless I revert and turn it off again. I'm using an Aorus Pro z690 with DDR5, G.SKILL Trident Z5 (2x16GB), 6000 MHz, i9-12900k. The RAM is at 4800 MHz with XMP disabled. Any advice would be appreciated.
The XMP settings seem quite strong for this board, paired with a limited memory setup. It’s likely the profile is slightly too demanding, and the memory controller isn’t powerful enough. Consider turning on XMP and setting the frequency around 5800 before powering up—this should help it start properly and run more reliably.
