XMP Profile 1 experiences issues on the Kingston Fury Renegade 7200.
Thanks for your feedback! The PC seems stable now, no BSODs after two days of use. VST played without issues and OCCT also passed. However, some apps still crash unexpectedly—like Adobe Premiere Pro during editing or Hogwarts Legacy when loading. I haven’t seen anything in Event Viewer or Reliability Monitor to explain these events.
I’m wondering if the frequent BSODs over the past weeks might have damaged Windows. I tried running sfc /scannow, DISM RestoreHealth, and AnalyzeComponents, but nothing resolved it. If this keeps happening and becomes bothersome, reinstalling Windows with fresh drivers might be a good idea.
It's understandable that these programs are often criticized for instability. Crashes can occur, especially with unstable memory overclocks—like the one I experienced when trying to boost an OEM Samsung B die DDR4, which caused the OS to crash at 3200 CL16 due to poor DIMMs. Generally, if the system boots into Windows without clear problems, it's usually fine. However, if you notice strange behavior, testing them could be worthwhile.
All proceeded smoothly until today when I accidentally opened the web browser and encountered a PFN_LIST_CORRUPT BSOD. Windows hasn't been reinstalled yet, so I'm unsure what to do next. Perhaps swapping in another RAM module would help. I'm also considering a upgrade to 64GBs. After checking the QVL, I noticed that any kit with an XMP frequency above 6000MHz is DS. Are SS kits more reliable than DS? I'm planning to order the G.SKILL D564GB 6000-30 Trident Z5 RGB BK K2 GSK | F5-6000J3040G32GX2-TZ5RK. What are your thoughts?
Typically this describes how the memory modules are arranged. DS stands for dual-sided or dual-rank memory, whereas SS indicates single-sided or single-rank memory. Right now, any 32GB DIMM is usually considered dual rank because that's the only practical option with today’s memory technology. Generally, more memory ranks in a system mean the memory controller has to work harder, although having additional ranks can offer some performance benefits per clock—especially noticeable with DDR4 compared to DDR5. Rank interleaving on DDR5 adds a small edge but isn’t a major factor. So yes, SS modules tend to run more reliably without tuning since they’re simpler, though at 6000MT/s the difference might be minimal. Overall it’s a solid setup, unless you really need 64GB of RAM, in which case sticking with what you have would be sensible. I haven’t encountered that error code before during memory overclocking, and I’ve seen many blue screens from unstable overclocks. It’s possible one of your drivers could be faulty, and a reinstall might help.
Aida64 provides AMDX reports. Ram XMP profiles are displayed. 7200MHz is supported along with 6800MHz.
