Hi there, I see you're facing an issue with your system. When using the XMP profile in BIOS and setting the voltage manually to 1.35V, only the RAM at 3200MHz works in single-channel mode. Switching to dual-channel causes it to restart until it stabilizes at 2133MHz. Your motherboard is an X570 Aorus Elite, you're running a Ryzen 7 2700X, and you have two 8GB RAM sticks at 3200MHz. The BIOS update didn't help, and the same worked on another machine (Z370 Aorus Gaming 3). Could there be something about the RAM configuration or BIOS settings affecting this behavior? I'm here to help you figure it out.

You might have received a weak memory controller—most zen+ chips should handle 3200C16 easily, though generally they struggle with this. Have you attempted increasing the speed to 2400, then 2666, 2933, and finally 3000 to identify the issue?

Yes, they are available in slots 1 and 3. I'll move them to slots 2 and 4.

Experiment with shifting positions and gradually increasing pace until failure occurs.

Sure, I'll review it. Just let me know if you'd like me to consider whether the CPU might be faulty under dual-channel conditions.
