For all the people on MSI boards, PER PMIC thing is right above the Voltage settings, it just says Memory Voltage LINKED, so set this to UNLINKED and enter desired voltage in all fields below both in VDD and VDDQ fields. Kingston Fury RGB DDR5 5600 MHz on MSI Z690 Force WiFi board, latest bios (which has memory fine tuned update). and i9-12900K which is undervolted as well. Just loaded XMP settings, and 1.35V for the voltage. Stable in all the tests... Before the BIOS update I had so many issues, even with this method here. I had to manually set desired speed, but this in return also messed up the sub timings, so it was not stable, as of the latest BIOS update, as I sad, just XMP and 1.35V UNLINKED voltage and it works.
@@njuna900 Upgrade BIOS first, that's a start.. after that 1.35V must work, but unlinked, 1.35 for each slot... 5200 is easy to achieve, should work without problems... but for 32 gigs, you should have gotten 2x 16 sticks just to be safe... I get it for 64 as there less 2x 32 kits on the market

@@harrysmith5353 I'm having similar issue. Z790-E with g.skill 7200. Bootloop after bootloop all day. I had the PC working for 2 days with random crashes... then something happened and I could't even reinstall windows due to crashing. Currently changed setting as in video and managed to get installed again but bsods still happening. I am at wits end with this.
Great work. I have two 32 GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 5200Mhz for a total of 64 GB (2 x 32). The ram defaulted them to 4000Mhz. When I tried to raise to 5200Mhz, it would not post. I just tried your solution and it worked perfectly.
5200 is a dumb speed to get also because it's more expensive than 4800 but you are still getting micron chips, so you might aswell buy 4800, same performance but a little cheaper
I have a i7 12700kf z690-F with 4x ram sticks: 2x adata xpg lancer 5200 mhz and x2 4800mhz Corsair Vengeance, i have mixed rams with different mhz because last year took me 4 months to build the pc, it was very hard to find gpu and other components, had to '' win queues '' to get ram, so after multiple attempts i ended up with 2 different rams. I couldn't find a solution for the DDR5 - XMP1 infinite boot so i did set auto and got default MHZ for 9 months. Today after watching your video and talked to friends last week, I decided to try it out,tthe volt change it didn't fix it but i found the solution: i did xmp-1 , AI OC up , frequency up to 4800mhz instead of 5200 or auto, it works perfectly. So basically the xmp1 setup was automatically set all rams at 5200 causing system being unstable, lowering the 5200 to 4800 and applying ai oc Now i have 4800 in my task manager instead of 3600-4000mhz, plus i can get 5000 aswell, it's a good solution. With XTU and AI OC I increased the CPU performance by an incredible amount . My GPU instead was already Overclocked with MSI afterburner with over 20k on time spy , it's a 3080 ti suprim x.
This fixed it for me. RAM was running very sub-par for the speed I bought. Now running at full speed and no stability issues whatsoever. Thanks for the information!
Been having this issue for weeks now and everything I’ve tried didn’t work until now. I wish I found this video earlier. Much appreciated for getting straight to the point. With the fix
So I have the z790m-Plus board and was having a nightmare of situation with the unexpected DDR5 training sessions. Sometimes would finally boot then crash blue screen and then go through 5 cycles of restarts before getting back to the OS. I followed your steps and holy shit it all works and my PC is super stable now. Thank you so much for this video. For memory I have 2x 32GB Trident Z5 DDR5 RAM 64GB 6400MT/s CL32-39-39-102 1.40V , I raised the voltages to 1.435V and now the RGB on all sticks is consistent as well as setting the PMIC Voltages to "BY per PMRC" works flawlessly.
YOU LEGEND! Purchased 4x48gb Trident Z5 6400mhz cl32 and the xmp was failing. Upping the voltage from 1.35 to 1.4 fixed this and passed the stress test :) Was a bit concerned I needed to power it off twice after 5 minutes of nothing but third boot worked like a charm.
I got 2 sets of Gskill f5-6400j3239g32gx2-tz5rk 2x32 kit. After I raise the voltage to 1.435 and follow this video, I got one set of the kit running with XMP I. Going to see if 2 kits can work together with XMP I.

As many others have said this fix has solved the boot loop issue! I was banging my head the wall for a month trying to figure out what was going on. Just built a new pc, 13900k with ASUS Z790H motherboard. I thought I had doa components so I replaced just about everything but of course it was still in a loop. What messed me up was I pulled the cmos battery out to restore bios settings but it was still stuck in a loop. I guess with this board even after pulling battery it will not restore bios, this can only be done by holding the reset bios button on the IO. I wish I had found this video. Literary took 2 minutes to fix it, I could not get the rated 6400mhz out of my ram at 1.40 volts but I was able to get 6000mhz. I could bump my voltage up to 1.45 and it would probably be stable but ASUS says don’t go any higher than 1.40 for daily use. This is a known issues with these boards but ASUS will not give a bios update to fix the issue, very frustrating!
Can't thank you enough. I was about to give up on XMP when I came across this video. I couldn't believe it POSTed after making those settings. I had tried everything. However, at the default XMP profile, I was failing memtest. I ended up reducing frequency from 5600 to 5200 for it to pass memtest. Still need to stress test but I'm stoked. I'm now running 128GB DDR5 at XMP profile (sort of) haha. Can't thank you enough.

Nice vid here.. I actually went through this process a few months ago.. I couldn't figure out why my Adata 5200hz would not work with XMP 1 or 2... luckily I found a random forum advising to increase the voltage slightly to 1.35v... Haven't had any problem since.. so yes, can confirm this is good advice.. didn't know about Sync 'By Per PIMC' though... I've found that wasn't necessary but I'm not going to turn that on in case it helps with stability. Thanks!
Dude, what a legend! :) I am running a 14700K with 4 sticks of 16GB 6400 MHZ Corsair Vengance RAM. Turned on XMP 1 and clocked the RAM down to 5600 MHZ according to intel's 14700K CPU RAM support specs on their page. I had quite some issues with crashing games and stuff, untill i changed the PMIC Voltages setting from "Sync All PMICs" to "By per PMIC". The voltage settings have not been changed as i do not run 100% of the RAM clock capabilities and voltages are already set by the XMP profile to 1.4 V. My RAM has been running stable since this change, and games haven't been crashing no more. I haven't done alot of testing yet but i will keep you guys updated. Thanks alot for sharing this information with the community! :)

My system would boot with 64GB of Corsair Dominator DDR5 (5600), but would hard lock and crash to BIOS the moment any type of stress was placed on RAM (pretty much any time I opened Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020). This fixed my issue, and I'm beyond thrilled. Thank you!

My situation is different, with all 4 sticks in, and XMP enabled, mine does not boot loop, however, I'm getting continuous BSODs on Windows 11. I'm using Trident Z5s as well, 6000mhz. I'll continue watching to see what your manual timings and goodies are :D EDIT: I ended up leaving the stock voltages at 1.35 but enabled the "per PMIC".

DDR5 wasn't rushed, but it's implementation by Ram and Motherboard manifacturers was. DDR5 works 100% perfectly fine at THE CPU's designed frequencies. *XMP IS AN OVERCLOCK* , so there's no guarentee you will get it working at that speed as long as the CPU MC is still only rated for 4800MTs, which is currently the case with the latest line of consumer CPUs. So many people are experiancing issues because of a mix between companies' race for the top with crazy memory and cpu OC clocks out of the box, that just aren't stable aross all bins of cpu, and the consumer's lack of knowlage of what XMP actually is. Yes XMP normally works with 2 dimms, but the CPU's memory controller isn't designed to support them speeds, so it's hardly surprising issues are popping up everywhere, like when trying to OC not 2 but 4 dimms to >1.5x the CPU's maximum rated MC speed!! Even if the memory seller is rating it at that speed, as it's kind of miss-leading as no CPU manifacturer at the moment will guarantee anywhere near some of these speeds, even for 2 dimms, even if the ram can handle it fine (again DD5 wasn't rushed, it's highly advanced, and is in fact technologically AHEAD of the current CPUs limitations, which is exactly what you want from new tech). DDR5 is amazing tech, people are just too greedy, and because they see someone with a golden chip and crazy binned dimms hitting like 8000MTs with dual sticks, they expect every set of ram to behave the same way with their CPU even when "doubling" the stress on the MC with a four stick set up. It just doesn't work like this. You have to manage your expectations through understanding some of the limitations with current CPU design when it comes to implementing DD5 ram into a build. *ANYTHING OVER 4800MTs RUNNING ON DDR5 IS AN OVERCLOCK OF THE PROCESSOR'S MEMORY CHANNEL* The higher you go, and the more sticks you have per channel, the more stress you put the MC controller under, and on some of the less well binning CPU MCs even getting 4800MTs with 4 sticks of unmatched 4800 rated ram can be a challenge! Although tbf that is the worst combination for all variables, it puts things into perspective as far as the limitations of some CPUs memory controllers. It's all about managing expectations, and understanding the limitations of the current supporting technology.
@@DaftFaderMy Asrock board natively detects my DDR5-5200 as "DDR5-2000" from the SPD. Tell me again how all of this isn't a broken hack. Or in other words: How hard can it be to have something like an EEPROM to contain some numbers and have a BIOS read those out without getting utterly confused!?
Hi. Your video is great and priceless! Used your suggestions for my newly purchased Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 2x32GB (64GB) XMP3.0 6600MTs kit which was proving difficult to run at 6600. The change to the PMIC voltages form Sync All PMICs to By per PMIC made all the difference. Works rock solid at 6000 and 13900K at 5.8GHz. Thank you. All the other XMP O/C videos are so complicated and do not work as well as yours.
I have a similar Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 2x32 64GB ram kit as you and a 13700k. When PC is put into sleep mode, upon start up, the system will only click then light up briefly, no boot, no windows, only ram rgb would stay on. Did you have a similar experience before this fix? Thanks
No I did not. The whole XMP DDR5 thing is a deceptive, very difficult thing to achieve. I recently crashed my system and corrupted my Windows 11 OS drive trying to run it at XMPII at 6600 MTs. Took me days to fix the boot using a recovery drive and the CMD function. It was a nightmare. I have since left my BIOS memory settings on default at 4800 MTs for peace of mind. Decided to just enjoy my games and sims with my kit as it is. @@countdadcula4475
Thanks this worked for me. I had Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000 MHz My base voltage was 1.35 so I upped it to 1.4 but I had to change the speed to 5600 MHz in order to get it work
Dude, you saved me a huge headache! Hope below steps will help you to get yours to work too. Here is how I got stable system. I have z690 Maximus Hero, 4x16gb 5600, i9-12900k.

@Ms Moon Boo yeah I was afraid that I wasn't going to able to run my rig with ddr5 after seeing all the reddits and yt vids but I guess I got really lucky. I was expecting to put it at 5k but it's solid at 5600
I'm using a asus maximus formula z690 board for any one having issues running at 6400mhz following this guide worked but it kept crashing i found that the place that built my pc put the ram in a1 and b1 this was the cause of my issue after removing ram and running a2 and b2 as the motherboards suggested with 2 sticks im now running at 6400mhz 1.35v with no issues make sure you check there in correct ports lads.
I'm using 4 might go down to just 2 for 32 gb. I've read reviews others have got it to be stable at 6400mhz with two sticks. Doesn't look like trident supports it with 4, I was running ok with the default at 3800mhz. Saw somewhere else 4000-4400mhz is the best you are going to get with Trident on this board. Best I got to even boot so far was 5800MHZ on the stock timing with voltage at 1.45V. Occasional crashing running games, mem86 shows a lot of errors. Model F5-6400J3239G16GX2-TZ5RS
I have 6000mhz ddr5 ram that cant run at 1.4 vdd voltage. I tried 1.5 and still the ram stress test gets errors or it struggles to load up. If i lower my RAM to 5200mhz and keep it at 1.4 vdd voltage which is what its set to automatically by ASUS it runs fine. My question is that should I keep increasing the two voltages in order to achieve the 6000mhz speed as the RAM sticks are meant to do or is it not worth it. By the way im using 4x16gb sticks Any help would be appreciated thank you.
This absolutely worked for me. I am running the crosshair x670e hero with 4 sticks of ddr5-6400. I was searching for your solution. You friend, have the best solution to this problem in the internet!
Been dealing with this problem since DDR5 came on the market, and this video was an immediate fix. It just popped up in my feed, and I'm like, 'huh, yeah, I never did get my RAM running in XMP'. Well, I'm glad it found its way to me. Thank you!
Awesome advice thanks! Finally gave up trying to run 64GB of GSkill Z5 at 6500. Works with 2 not with 4. With 4 it won't go over the default speed even after changing the voltage. G SKILL doesn't show it as supported. But don't really need it so I took two out to run the faster clock speed.
Your comment over a year later helped me. I moved the stickers as you said to 2nd and 4th from 1st and 3rd and it worked. I did everything this guy said on TH-cam but it wouldn’t work. Thank you.
Just got an ASRock z790 Steel Legend and 4x16GB corsair vengeance ddr5-6000 ram. Set the xmp profile and manually set to DDR5-6000. nope. Tried everything I could and it defaults to 3600 until I came across your video! I do have a core i9-12900k which says max 4800 so I set it to 4800 with your other settings, I put my voltages to 1.35 though. So far it's stable at 4800. I'll try going up later but I'm happy for now. Thank you!!!
Great Video but I want to highlight one thing for many people that still have problem with xmp profile on my own case: I ordered Prebuild PC and had hard time configuring xmp profile for 6000mhz 2x16gb and I almost lost my mind.. turned out the person who was building my PC inserted RAMs in wrong ports, check your motherboard manual and be sure that you have inserted ram in correct ports, I switched mine, did steps from the video and it worked like charm!
Thanks for that! I had given up on trying to get my Dominator DDR5 to run at it's advertised speed. Just kept getting the boot loop. I hadn't tried changing the sync all core to per core, that did the trick.
Excuse my ignorance but what I don't know if I'm changing the correct settings on my MSI motherboard, I can't seem to find anything that says PMIC Voltages. Is there another term for an MSI equivalent? Thanks in advance.
MANY thanks for this. Got 128GB DDR5 running at 4800 on a Z790 and randomly crashing for months, as I did not find any way to make them work at their 5600 listed freq. This literally saved me. 3 months now since I made the mods suggested in this vid, all issues vanished.
Thank you for this. I had 4x48gb ddr5 ram and all of the sudden i was getting bsod after bootup and when I ram memtest I had 14000 errors. I knew my ram of a few months didnt die all of the sudden so I tested each one individually. No errors. Put all four in and I was still getting a few errors and bsod every once in a while. I changed this setting and bumped my voltage up from 1.1 and ran memtest for several passes with all four sticks with 0 errors.
I tried two kits of 64 GB 5600 CL30 from G.Skill for a total of 128 GB. It booted at 5600 XMP with 4 sticks but insta errors in Memtest86. I tried lowering the frequency down to 4800 MHz and Memtest86 still errored but much less. Then I tried cranking the Memory Controller Voltage from the stock 1.24v to 1.31v and then it passed the 4 hr overnight test (128GB takes forever to test). However, Linpack tests would throw errors very quickly as its much harder on the memory controller. I had to lower it to 4400 MHz to be completely stable. But at that point, I just gave up exploring 4x 32 since going all the way down to 4400 was too much of a compromise and just resorted to sticking with 2x 32 and running the 5600 XMP profile - it was completely stable. That said, I recently started tweaking the 2x 32 and managed to get it stable at 6000 MHz after a lot of fine tuning. I had to increase the following voltages to get there: VDD/VDDQ: 1.25v -> 1.425v IMC Voltage: 1.24v -> 1.425v System Agent Voltage: 1.23v -> 1.28v VCCIN: 1.8v -> 2.0v Any of these missing results in instability. But with all of those, I am running 2x 32 @ 6000 MHz CL30 100% solid stable in all tests. Learned to tune exactly these voltages and the "safe ranges" from watching Buildzoid's DDR5 Overclocking guide video. Had I learned about this earlier, maybe I would have been able to get 4x 32 at a higher speed stable, but at the time I didn't have the luxury of time to learn all this stuff as I was within my return period for the other kit. I also learned that the TRUE test for memory + IMC stability is Prime95 Large FFTs. Any sign of problems show up within 3 - 40 minutes. Most problems show up under 60 seconds.
Thank you Sir! was able to get my speed from 4000 to 5600 because of this troubleshooting video and if this helps anyone else make sure you check your manual for which slots you should use for a dual ram setup that was my main issue and after realizing that this video fixed the rest
I found out what to do. In MSI BIOS, first click on Advanced Mode (hit F7). Then go to OC Settings, and scroll all the way down, until you find voltage settings. There, put DRAM Voltage and DRAM VDDQ to 1.3 Volts each. Then, there should be an option right below that says "link". That's where you put it to "unlink" and I don't remember the option name 100%, but i recall it being something with DRAM Voltage. Once it is unlinked, you have to set the 1.3 Voltage to the new options that appear. That is just so you set 1.3 volts to 1 ram stick, and 1.3 volts to the second ram stick (if you're running 2 sticks) Hope this helps anyone out there
I have an Asus TUF Gaming Z790 Gaming Wifi (bios version 0812) with 2x16gb kit of Corsair Vengeance (CMK32GX5M2B5600C36) and had an issue using that ram. I couldn't boot with default bios settings at all. I needed to remove 1 stick, boot in bios and activate XMP 1 or 2, shutdown and put back the second stick to even be able to setup the system. But even if I was able to make it work, I still had some system instability and your 2 settings help fix my constant game crashes. Thanks so much!!!
Dear Bartman, I know this video covers only ddr5, but I have a DDR4 4x16 (4 sticks) xpg 3600 cl18 that would crash constantly on basic tasks on my 12700k with xmp profile1. I’m new to OC and I play games as well as edit videos on 4K. I’ve tried 3400mhz and system becomes stable, but I’ve noticed a 15fps drop different sometimes during gameplay compared to when I only had 2x16(2sticks). So I really want to run it at 3600mhz. But I’m too scared to touch the VCCSA or other voltages. Other than messing with the PMIC, am I safe to apply the voltage increases by 0.5 - 1 volt for it to run stable 3600mhz? I’m a new content creator boomer and watched most of your vids, I just don’t want my pc to die as that’ll be pretty inconvenient… Thanks a bunch!
I have the same exact issue with my new build and I’ve been trying to troubleshoot for almost a week. My motherboard detected it as a CPU issue but in reality it’s my DDR4 Ram (4x16) as well. I have also been using the xmp profile1 on my MSI Z690 Motherboard. Just wondering if you added extra volts and if your build ran safely or if there was any efficient change to stick with 64gb of ram because I would love to be able to edit in 4k but with this problem it is a huge issue. Thank you!
I had 2x sticks of 32gb DDR5 5200 C40 on my Z790-E - could not use XMP without BSOD. This recommendation absolutely fixed all my issues 👌👍 gold dust, thank you.
I’ve got 4 sticks of Trident Z5 6400 CL32. When I turn on XMP I, the voltage is correctly set to 1.4v which is the stick was rated for. I’ve tried to set the voltage to 1.435 (without enabling high voltage mode) and set “by per pmic) but it won’t POST.
@@meochan913 dude dont pump too high, you will burn your cpu, be caerful!! my advice is go back and reset you bios, turn xmp on, leave it at 1.4v and try lowering your ram frequency from 6400 to 6300 or 6200 or 6100 or 6000, just toggle those it might work.. but dont pump your voltage more than 1.4 if it didnt work let me know ill try something else
I have 4x16gb, 6400 mhz, cl32, G.Skill Trident Z5 memory. With the method you showed, I was able to get 5800 Mhz. (1.40000v + 5800 mhz) For an hour I tried to reach 6000-6200-6400 MHz with different voltages, but the BIOS never POSTed. (Actually I can't go above 1.43500v in BIOS. It automatically overwrote 1.45000 to 1.43500) I look forward to the new video on 6000+ Mhz performance and many thanks for this solution!
@@BartmansBits I was still testing the settings yesterday but it was very unstable. specifically, my windows have crashed and since then I am over on a reinstall. Kahru memtest found an error in the first 50% after 5-6 mins... and I can't get through the 1st pass in memtest86. We have to wait for the bios update, but I'm not even sure it will work with 2 kit dual channel memory. It is no coincidence that they do not produce a quad channel ddr5 kit sadly :( and the 2 x 2x16 dual kit is pretty ghetto. Aaand thanks for the reply. I am using asus rog maximus z690 extreme mobo
I have only 3600MHZ in windows of those same RAMS and and I have to take two of 4 out utherwise the Win sometimes crash with blue screen....so trying only 32Gbs rams on low mem frequency....terrible opt...
Just seen this. I've had so many discussions with asus..running z690 asus extreme with 64gb team group 6400mhz. Going to try when get home..let ya know 😃
did it work?? how about you temps are they okay,, i was gonna do that but im afraid it's gonna burn my cpu cuz high voltage means higher temps. please let me know if you get the chance, thanks in advance
I bought a brand new computer, and I made the mistake of going with 64gb of DDR5 for aesthetics. After months of using 48gb for stability and trying many different methods, this is finally the savior that helped me. I don't know what took me so long to find this video, but I'm so happy I did. Specs: RoG Z690-E Gaming Wifi DDR5 LGA 1700 2 kits of Corsair Dominator 6400Mhz CL32 (2x16) i9-13900k (non overclocked) The only thing for me, I had to remove the stick in A1 then boot into bios, because I kept getting Q-Code 55 with the stick in A1 still. Then I changed the BIOS and put the stick in after.
The PMIC setting fixed it for me! Spent hours tweaking and researching trying to get DDR5 6400mhz sticks to post at rated speeds until I found this video.... much appreciated!
Thanks! Fixed the issue. I had to also drop the frequency a few hundred MHz because I got some errors from OCCT memoy test at the rated 6400 speed, but main thing is, I could actually boot!
Legend now running 128GB been on 64GB for past year with the spare 2 Dims in a draw as was only ever able to get it stable with 2 installed, thanks to you now on quad channel ram
I was so frustrated that i wasnt getting the ram high speeds as i purchased for...but after i applied ur setting it just did changed 6000 mhz corsair 64 gb kit...thank you so much brother
This video helped me get 4x 32gb sticks to run NEAR xmp (5400mhz vs 5600mhz) on a Pro Art z790. Prior to this it was hard crashing non stop, I think the voltage tweaks and the unlinking was key, thank you for the video. Honestly with a little bit more voltage tweaking on the memory controller you probably could push it higher however I am comfortable with 5400mhz stability.
Wish I had seen this vid months ago. I didn't have any issues until I had updated to a newer bios back in August, and I've been struggling with it since. For some other folks who run into this issue, 👉I would like to re-emphasize how important it is to pull your RAM out and put it back in. 👈 Just doing the memory voltage and PMIC tweaks alone did not get me to POST. If you can't post after switching these settings, turning off your PSU and draining power(hitting power button) doesn't work either, you HAVE to remove the RAM sticks.
Hello! Thanks for this tuto ! No matter how much I increase the voltage with my 4 RAM bars, my PC only reboots in a loop and returns to the BIOS. If I put only 2 bars it works. Thanks for your help
XMP I + these settings on an ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-E Gaming Wifi Motherboard (BIOS ver. 1202) + 4 DIMMs x 32 GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 5600 MHz (CMH64GX5M2B5600C36) works fine as of 05/08/2023. The maximum I could go for without these changes was 4800 MHz, on 2 DIMMs or 4 DIMMs on default settings. I can confirm 4 DIMMs on XMP I or II forces the system into the boot loop with no display, without these changes. Thanks heaps.
Thank you for the PMIC tip! I have 6000mhz ram but I have 128gb (x4 sticks) and apparently you can't run the Ram that fast if you have all 4 slots used. So after picking the 6000mhz XMP preset, I then went to the speed setting and lowered it manually to 5000. But without the PMIC, even that didn't work.
To this day this problem continues. Two weeks ago I built a z790-e rog strix and my first option was 16x4 7200mhz ddr sticks, there was no way for it to boot with XMP. It only started if I set them by default to 4800 MHz, I changed the 4 16x4 sticks to two 32x2 Corsair dominator titatinum 6600 MHz sticks and they work perfectly even making them reach 6800 MHz with the factory xmp profile, I advise you not to touch the voltages because if you ruin the ram for that reason, they will not refund your money, you will have to wait for a bios to come out that allows you to have 4 sticks
I'm sitting here with a MSI Tomahawk Z790 and a 13700K I bought at Best Buy yesterday. Got it all together and everything was wonderful. Then in the middle of Red Dead Redemption2 it totally blacked out, dead shut off. Then came back on and boot loop. It never post another picture on the monitor even after 25 or so boot ups. I was on a failsafe bios setting. First thing I checked was my thermal paste. Just to see if it went south after getting hot. All was awesome there. Then went to the old Z390 9900K combo I had the ram and 6800xt graphics card working with yesterday. Everything booted right up with no failures. I was getting 15 fps easy in 4k above my old 9900K. I benched it out in CPUz and it was all in line with other 13700's performance wise. Heat staying below 75 in gaming. CPUID was showing MAX 75, but I never seen it hit that ever. Which was hot to an extent, but I was pushing the 6800xt at 100%. I have a fairly new 850 Corsair PSU, so with no real strain on the system it has to be either the processor or the motherboard. I tried to just take the graphics card and battery out and boot with the 13700K but still stuck in a boot loop. I like so much to get it figured out, but hate the investment into a motherboard that is so fragile if it turns out to be the issue.
ASRock Z790-C, 12.06; 4 x 5600, 1.25; -- did the VDD, VDDQ and separated the PMIC. Relearn took awhile, but I'm operating at 5600, XMP profile. This is still valid today.
I have the Asus Z790 Maximus Extreme with 2 dominator 5200Mhz 32gb sticks, tried this fix with no luck, although it did eventually bring me back where I could enter the bios again. Bios is up to date also. Just have to keep looking for a fix!
Thankk so much for this video. Its helped me to solve the same DDR5 64GB 4xDIMM 6200MHz in an ASUS Maximus Z690 Extreme with BIOS Version 2204 and a i9-13900K. Got it working with CPU O/C at 5.8GHz and memory at 5800. All using the main principles you so well explain.
For people who still run into this issue.. not all the settings he provides work 100% of the time. I have 4x 16gb sticks. I managed to get 2 working. 4 is a straight up no go. I used XMP 2 on mine. I also used sync because per pmic would still make it loop for me. So i would suggest trying different combinations of the settings he provides. It can differ per build what works.
I had 4 working previously with these exact instructions and tested it pretty rigorously. Now after bios update its not posting with 4. Ugh back to square 1.
@@tooManyMidgets Same thing happened to me this week on the latest ASUS Strix x790 E BIOS. I had to lower my XMP memory speed from 5600 to 4800 to get it to boot.
You legend!! I cant explain to you how many vids and posts steer you down the wrong direction! In saying that though it is so ridiculous we need to manually chamge settings like this to get it running with xmp.
Thanks!!! it was so helpfull!!! that solved , we had BSOD many times until we changed that suggested, basically the XMP its not working on DDR5. maybe future BIOS update could fix it
Bro, thanks. I am not even using an Intel system. Using AMD 7950X3D. Your video randomly came up with me not finding a solution to booting. However, you just kept saying the system will take time to train the memory. Wait up to 10minutes. So I waited, waited, and waited. Well I guess it trained the ram because my system finally booted up. Never once out of the many many builds I've done have I ran into this situation. Thanks again!
I’m running a z690 aswel but with 128 gigs of DDR5 6000 RAM. I used this guide and upped my volts form default 1.4 to 1.435 and it booted into the so first run through. Iv been on the loop train for hours before this video
It didn't work... I think this is almost it though! MSI z790 board doesn't have the "sync pmc" setting anywhere I can see (so I can't un-sync it). Closest setting is "link/ unlink" which gives options for voltage for each stick (and the single vdd vddq setting disappears)... tried setting every stick vdd vddq to 1.3... still doesn't work. Ram is corsair vengeance 5600. Also tried same with setting the msi "try it" setting to 5200/4800 and still doesn't work.
I can get my Gigabyte Z790 Aero G to boot by changing these settings and windows is totally stable but as soon as I do a restart I get the boot failure detected message again but if I shut down instead of reboot then it always boots up fine. Gigabytes bios is super buggy.
@@Edgycoo I got my ram to run at 5600 MHz with two sticks, but I had to increase the voltage to 1.35 V from the 1.2 V in the XMP profile. If one stick seems worse, you can try to RMA it for a new one. Reading posts online, it seems DDR5 isn't very stable beyond 4800 MHz out of the box.
Thanks for everything. I have Gskill DDR5 (4x16GB) 6000 mhz ram. After long trials, I was able to run Gskill DDR5 (4x16GB) ram at 1.40 volts at 5800 mhz on the Asus Rog Strix Z690 motherboard by following the steps in this video. The system has been running stable for a few days. The system starts at 6000 mhz at 1.40 volts, but it does not work stable. I think it is necessary to give more than 1.40 volts for stable operation at 6000 mhz. However, the support team of the manufacturer of the rams said that it is risky to give voltage above 1.40 volts. There is no rule that it will work in the same way for people with the same system. However, I wanted to share it for informational purposes. I would like to say that the people who apply it are at their own risk. Have a nice day.
Hey i just installeed 32 more gb ram into my rig with 4 sticks instead of 2 Had no issue with xmp on 32 gb but after getting new ram my pc restart alot. What Can i do?
Success! You got the shit working. I am looking to build a new PC with 128 GB of RAM. I'm a video editor using Adobe Premiere, After Affects and Photoshop. I've been waiting to build my system until a DDR5 XMP fix is available. This seems to work. Thank you for posting this video. It is very helpful.
Problem still exists in the latest Asus Z790 as of September 2024. In fact, I think the newer BIOS made the issue worse over the 2023 BIOS I was using.
I Just tried this with 64 GB Ram, DDR5 @ 6000 (4 sticks of XPG), didnt adjust voltages (voltages on latest bios update already higher than 1.3 as default) but changed the PMIC voltages from "Sync all PMIC's to "By Per PMIC" and worked first shot. have 12900K, Z690-F Mother board and again 4 sticks of XPG 16GB DDR5 Ram. Awesome it worked. Wondering if I should try again with having the PMIC voltages to Sync all (With XMP) but just going to leave for now as its working perfect here now. Thanks

For all the people on MSI boards, PER PMIC thing is right above the Voltage settings, it just says Memory Voltage LINKED, so set this to UNLINKED and enter desired voltage in all fields below both in VDD and VDDQ fields.
Kingston Fury RGB DDR5 5600 MHz on MSI Z690 Force WiFi board, latest bios (which has memory fine tuned update). and i9-12900K which is undervolted as well. Just loaded XMP settings, and 1.35V for the voltage. Stable in all the tests...
Before the BIOS update I had so many issues, even with this method here. I had to manually set desired speed, but this in return also messed up the sub timings, so it was not stable, as of the latest BIOS update, as I sad, just XMP and 1.35V UNLINKED voltage and it works.
Hi, any suggest for Kingston FURY KF552C40BBAK2-16 (x2, so total 32 GB), i have problem on settings 5200Mhz, 1.35V seems to high...
@@njuna900 Upgrade BIOS first, that's a start.. after that 1.35V must work, but unlinked, 1.35 for each slot... 5200 is easy to achieve, should work without problems... but for 32 gigs, you should have gotten 2x 16 sticks just to be safe... I get it for 64 as there less 2x 32 kits on the market

Great work. I have two 32 GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 5200Mhz for a total of 64 GB (2 x 32). The ram defaulted them to 4000Mhz. When I tried to raise to 5200Mhz, it would not post. I just tried your solution and it worked perfectly.
For what? Wasted money
5200 is a dumb speed to get also because it's more expensive than 4800 but you are still getting micron chips, so you might aswell buy 4800, same performance but a little cheaper

I have a i7 12700kf z690-F with 4x ram sticks: 2x adata xpg lancer 5200 mhz and x2 4800mhz Corsair Vengeance, i have mixed rams with different mhz because last year took me 4 months to build the pc, it was very hard to find gpu and other components, had to '' win queues '' to get ram, so after multiple attempts i ended up with 2 different rams. I couldn't find a solution for the DDR5 - XMP1 infinite boot so i did set auto and got default MHZ for 9 months. Today after watching your video and talked to friends last week, I decided to try it out,tthe volt change it didn't fix it but i found the solution: i did xmp-1 , AI OC up , frequency up to 4800mhz instead of 5200 or auto, it works perfectly. So basically the xmp1 setup was automatically set all rams at 5200 causing system being unstable, lowering the 5200 to 4800 and applying ai oc Now i have 4800 in my task manager instead of 3600-4000mhz, plus i can get 5000 aswell, it's a good solution.

For memory I have 2x 32GB Trident Z5 DDR5 RAM 64GB 6400MT/s CL32-39-39-102 1.40V , I raised the voltages to 1.435V and now the RGB on all sticks is consistent as well as setting the PMIC Voltages to "BY per PMRC" works flawlessly.
YOU LEGEND! Purchased 4x48gb Trident Z5 6400mhz cl32 and the xmp was failing. Upping the voltage from 1.35 to 1.4 fixed this and passed the stress test :) Was a bit concerned I needed to power it off twice after 5 minutes of nothing but third boot worked like a charm.

As many others have said this fix has solved the boot loop issue! I was banging my head the wall for a month trying to figure out what was going on. Just built a new pc, 13900k with ASUS Z790H motherboard. I thought I had doa components so I replaced just about everything but of course it was still in a loop. What messed me up was I pulled the cmos battery out to restore bios settings but it was still stuck in a loop. I guess with this board even after pulling battery it will not restore bios, this can only be done by holding the reset bios button on the IO. I wish I had found this video. Literary took 2 minutes to fix it, I could not get the rated 6400mhz out of my ram at 1.40 volts but I was able to get 6000mhz. I could bump my voltage up to 1.45 and it would probably be stable but ASUS says don’t go any higher than 1.40 for daily use. This is a known issues with these boards but ASUS will not give a bios update to fix the issue, very frustrating!
Can't thank you enough. I was about to give up on XMP when I came across this video. I couldn't believe it POSTed after making those settings. I had tried everything. However, at the default XMP profile, I was failing memtest. I ended up reducing frequency from 5600 to 5200 for it to pass memtest. Still need to stress test but I'm stoked. I'm now running 128GB DDR5 at XMP profile (sort of) haha. Can't thank you enough.

Nice vid here.. I actually went through this process a few months ago..

I've found that wasn't necessary but I'm not going to turn that on in case it helps with stability. Thanks!

I am running a 14700K with 4 sticks of 16GB 6400 MHZ Corsair Vengance RAM.
Turned on XMP 1 and clocked the RAM down to 5600 MHZ according to intel's 14700K CPU RAM support specs on their page.
I had quite some issues with crashing games and stuff, untill i changed the PMIC Voltages setting from "Sync All PMICs" to "By per PMIC".
The voltage settings have not been changed as i do not run 100% of the RAM clock capabilities and voltages are already set by the XMP profile to 1.4 V.
My RAM has been running stable since this change, and games haven't been crashing no more.

I’ve got four trident d5s 6000mhz and no cigar for me, went into the loop… with his settings at 1.30 and yours at 1.35 with it set to “per PCIm”
This worked for me also 1.35v per pmic for ddr5 5600mhz memory now stable. Spent a year of straight crashing in games over such a simple change 🙄
Thanks a lot- my Msi z790/i9-13900K - 64GB 5200MHz system was not stable enough to even benchmark it - this problem has been solved. I got the link to this video directly from Corsair support, btw.
Thank you so much for letting us know! You really helped me and I saved a lot of time in terms of troubleshooting. Greetings from Germany!
Did you use this setup? What settings did you use?
I assembled two pc with four sticks of ram and both of them had this problem . I.m going to test your way on them and see if it works. Thank you man 🙏🙏🙏
Have you tested this theory? Has it worked for you?
Thank you for making this vid! Saved me a ton of troubleshooting time... much appreciated!
Hello everyone! I followed this tutorial and it worked for me!! Thank you so much!!
This is my pc that I worked with following the tutorial:
I9 14k
Neo Trident DDR5-6000mhz CL30
4070 ti super
And 3 M.2s.
Motherboard TUF z790 WiFi Plus
I can't believe DDR5 is causing this many issues for consumers. DDR5 was rushed and not plug in play as it should have been
Had to do the same thing on my DDR4 X470....
it was already garbage on z690 except for a few kits (corsair didnt work at all for me only g.skill) i hoped amd would be better nope its WORSE >
It's because it's new and 3600mhz is default. but companies are rushing into the unknown at 6000
DDR5 wasn't rushed, but it's implementation by Ram and Motherboard manifacturers was. DDR5 works 100% perfectly fine at THE CPU's designed frequencies. *XMP IS AN OVERCLOCK* , so there's no guarentee you will get it working at that speed as long as the CPU MC is still only rated for 4800MTs, which is currently the case with the latest line of consumer CPUs.
So many people are experiancing issues because of a mix between companies' race for the top with crazy memory and cpu OC clocks out of the box, that just aren't stable aross all bins of cpu, and the consumer's lack of knowlage of what XMP actually is.
Yes XMP normally works with 2 dimms, but the CPU's memory controller isn't designed to support them speeds, so it's hardly surprising issues are popping up everywhere, like when trying to OC not 2 but 4 dimms to >1.5x the CPU's maximum rated MC speed!! Even if the memory seller is rating it at that speed, as it's kind of miss-leading as no CPU manifacturer at the moment will guarantee anywhere near some of these speeds, even for 2 dimms, even if the ram can handle it fine (again DD5 wasn't rushed, it's highly advanced, and is in fact technologically AHEAD of the current CPUs limitations, which is exactly what you want from new tech).
DDR5 is amazing tech, people are just too greedy, and because they see someone with a golden chip and crazy binned dimms hitting like 8000MTs with dual sticks, they expect every set of ram to behave the same way with their CPU even when "doubling" the stress on the MC with a four stick set up. It just doesn't work like this. You have to manage your expectations through understanding some of the limitations with current CPU design when it comes to implementing DD5 ram into a build.
*ANYTHING OVER 4800MTs RUNNING ON DDR5 IS AN OVERCLOCK OF THE PROCESSOR'S MEMORY CHANNEL* The higher you go, and the more sticks you have per channel, the more stress you put the MC controller under, and on some of the less well binning CPU MCs even getting 4800MTs with 4 sticks of unmatched 4800 rated ram can be a challenge! Although tbf that is the worst combination for all variables, it puts things into perspective as far as the limitations of some CPUs memory controllers. It's all about managing expectations, and understanding the limitations of the current supporting technology.
@@DaftFaderMy Asrock board natively detects my DDR5-5200 as "DDR5-2000" from the SPD. Tell me again how all of this isn't a broken hack. Or in other words: How hard can it be to have something like an EEPROM to contain some numbers and have a BIOS read those out without getting utterly confused!?
I had given up on XMP but updated my Z690-F Gaming BIOS and tried this, worked perfectly. Thanks!
Hi. Your video is great and priceless! Used your suggestions for my newly purchased Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 2x32GB (64GB) XMP3.0 6600MTs kit which was proving difficult to run at 6600. The change to the PMIC voltages form Sync All PMICs to By per PMIC made all the difference. Works rock solid at 6000 and 13900K at 5.8GHz. Thank you.
All the other XMP O/C videos are so complicated and do not work as well as yours.
I have a similar Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 2x32 64GB ram kit as you and a 13700k. When PC is put into sleep mode, upon start up, the system will only click then light up briefly, no boot, no windows, only ram rgb would stay on. Did you have a similar experience before this fix? Thanks
No I did not. The whole XMP DDR5 thing is a deceptive, very difficult thing to achieve. I recently crashed my system and corrupted my Windows 11 OS drive trying to run it at XMPII at 6600 MTs. Took me days to fix the boot using a recovery drive and the CMD function. It was a nightmare. I have since left my BIOS memory settings on default at 4800 MTs for peace of mind. Decided to just enjoy my games and sims with my kit as it is. @@countdadcula4475
Thanks this worked for me.
I had Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000 MHz
My base voltage was 1.35 so I upped it to 1.4 but I had to change the speed to 5600 MHz in order to get it work
Dude, you saved me a huge headache! Hope below steps will help you to get yours to work too. Here is how I got stable system. I have z690 Maximus Hero, 4x16gb 5600, i9-12900k. I got it to work with: NO XMP profile selected, 5200 picked manulaly, VDD and VDDQ voltage set to 1.35V, PMIC Voltages set to By Per PMIC, and the key to stable system was this setting PCI Express Native Power Management - DISABLED.

I'm using a asus maximus formula z690 board for any one having issues running at 6400mhz following this guide worked but it kept crashing i found that the place that built my pc put the ram in a1 and b1 this was the cause of my issue after removing ram and running a2 and b2 as the motherboards suggested with 2 sticks im now running at 6400mhz 1.35v with no issues make sure you check there in correct ports lads.

@@zeke10148 if its 4 sticks of ram seen there can be issues with ddr5 hope you sort it out
I'm using 4 might go down to just 2 for 32 gb. I've read reviews others have got it to be stable at 6400mhz with two sticks. Doesn't look like trident supports it with 4, I was running ok with the default at 3800mhz. Saw somewhere else 4000-4400mhz is the best you are going to get with Trident on this board. Best I got to even boot so far was 5800MHZ on the stock timing with voltage at 1.45V. Occasional crashing running games, mem86 shows a lot of errors.
Model F5-6400J3239G16GX2-TZ5RS
I have 6000mhz ddr5 ram that cant run at 1.4 vdd voltage. I tried 1.5 and still the ram stress test gets errors or it struggles to load up.
If i lower my RAM to 5200mhz and keep it at 1.4 vdd voltage which is what its set to automatically by ASUS it runs fine.
My question is that should I keep increasing the two voltages in order to achieve the 6000mhz speed as the RAM sticks are meant to do or is it not worth it.
By the way im using 4x16gb sticks
Any help would be appreciated thank you.
You are the Man !!. Thank you so much. Now my build works flawless at max speed.

@@jamiethompson2967 Hi man. What memories do you have and what capacity?
Been dealing with this problem since DDR5 came on the market, and this video was an immediate fix. It just popped up in my feed, and I'm like, 'huh, yeah, I never did get my RAM running in XMP'. Well, I'm glad it found its way to me. Thank you!
Awesome advice thanks! Finally gave up trying to run 64GB of GSkill Z5 at 6500. Works with 2 not with 4. With 4 it won't go over the default speed even after changing the voltage. G SKILL doesn't show it as supported. But don't really need it so I took two out to run the faster clock speed.
Which Slots did you place the two sticks in 2nd and 4th? Or 1st and 3rd?
@@donvincenz7406 2nd and 4rth going away from the cpu. Per the Asus user manual.

Just got an ASRock z790 Steel Legend and 4x16GB corsair vengeance ddr5-6000 ram. Set the xmp profile and manually set to DDR5-6000. nope. Tried everything I could and it defaults to 3600 until I came across your video! I do have a core i9-12900k which says max 4800 so I set it to 4800 with your other settings, I put my voltages to 1.35 though. So far it's stable at 4800. I'll try going up later but I'm happy for now. Thank you!!!
Great Video but I want to highlight one thing for many people that still have problem with xmp profile on my own case:
I ordered Prebuild PC and had hard time configuring xmp profile for 6000mhz 2x16gb and I almost lost my mind.. turned out the person who was building my PC inserted RAMs in wrong ports, check your motherboard manual and be sure that you have inserted ram in correct ports, I switched mine, did steps from the video and it worked like charm!
Thanks for that!
I had given up on trying to get my Dominator DDR5 to run at it's advertised speed. Just kept getting the boot loop. I hadn't tried changing the sync all core to per core, that did the trick.
Excuse my ignorance but what I don't know if I'm changing the correct settings on my MSI motherboard, I can't seem to find anything that says PMIC Voltages. Is there another term for an MSI equivalent? Thanks in advance.
MANY thanks for this.
Got 128GB DDR5 running at 4800 on a Z790 and randomly crashing for months, as I did not find any way to make them work at their 5600 listed freq.
This literally saved me. 3 months now since I made the mods suggested in this vid, all issues vanished.
Nice video, we're currently working on the same issues in Italy. Such an headache..
Here from Mexico.
Thank you for this. I had 4x48gb ddr5 ram and all of the sudden i was getting bsod after bootup and when I ram memtest I had 14000 errors.
I knew my ram of a few months didnt die all of the sudden so I tested each one individually. No errors. Put all four in and I was still getting a few errors and bsod every once in a while.
I changed this setting and bumped my voltage up from 1.1 and ran memtest for several passes with all four sticks with 0 errors.
I tried two kits of 64 GB 5600 CL30 from G.Skill for a total of 128 GB. It booted at 5600 XMP with 4 sticks but insta errors in Memtest86. I tried lowering the frequency down to 4800 MHz and Memtest86 still errored but much less. Then I tried cranking the Memory Controller Voltage from the stock 1.24v to 1.31v and then it passed the 4 hr overnight test (128GB takes forever to test). However, Linpack tests would throw errors very quickly as its much harder on the memory controller. I had to lower it to 4400 MHz to be completely stable. But at that point, I just gave up exploring 4x 32 since going all the way down to 4400 was too much of a compromise and just resorted to sticking with 2x 32 and running the 5600 XMP profile - it was completely stable.
That said, I recently started tweaking the 2x 32 and managed to get it stable at 6000 MHz after a lot of fine tuning. I had to increase the following voltages to get there:
VDD/VDDQ: 1.25v -> 1.425v
IMC Voltage: 1.24v -> 1.425v
System Agent Voltage: 1.23v -> 1.28v
VCCIN: 1.8v -> 2.0v
Any of these missing results in instability. But with all of those, I am running 2x 32 @ 6000 MHz CL30 100% solid stable in all tests.
Learned to tune exactly these voltages and the "safe ranges" from watching Buildzoid's DDR5 Overclocking guide video.
Had I learned about this earlier, maybe I would have been able to get 4x 32 at a higher speed stable, but at the time I didn't have the luxury of time to learn all this stuff as I was within my return period for the other kit.
I also learned that the TRUE test for memory + IMC stability is Prime95 Large FFTs. Any sign of problems show up within 3 - 40 minutes. Most problems show up under 60 seconds.

I'd love to know the setting name on an MSI motherboard.
Yeah dude me too :D
I found out what to do. In MSI BIOS, first click on Advanced Mode (hit F7). Then go to OC Settings, and scroll all the way down, until you find voltage settings. There, put DRAM Voltage and DRAM VDDQ to 1.3 Volts each. Then, there should be an option right below that says "link". That's where you put it to "unlink" and I don't remember the option name 100%, but i recall it being something with DRAM Voltage.
Once it is unlinked, you have to set the 1.3 Voltage to the new options that appear. That is just so you set 1.3 volts to 1 ram stick, and 1.3 volts to the second ram stick (if you're running 2 sticks)
Hope this helps anyone out there

I have an Asus TUF Gaming Z790 Gaming Wifi (bios version 0812) with 2x16gb kit of Corsair Vengeance (CMK32GX5M2B5600C36) and had an issue using that ram. I couldn't boot with default bios settings at all. I needed to remove 1 stick, boot in bios and activate XMP 1 or 2, shutdown and put back the second stick to even be able to setup the system. But even if I was able to make it work, I still had some system instability and your 2 settings help fix my constant game crashes. Thanks so much!!!
Dear Bartman, I know this video covers only ddr5, but I have a DDR4 4x16 (4 sticks) xpg 3600 cl18 that would crash constantly on basic tasks on my 12700k with xmp profile1. I’m new to OC and I play games as well as edit videos on 4K. I’ve tried 3400mhz and system becomes stable, but I’ve noticed a 15fps drop different sometimes during gameplay compared to when I only had 2x16(2sticks). So I really want to run it at 3600mhz. But I’m too scared to touch the VCCSA or other voltages. Other than messing with the PMIC, am I safe to apply the voltage increases by 0.5 - 1 volt for it to run stable 3600mhz? I’m a new content creator boomer and watched most of your vids, I just don’t want my pc to die as that’ll be pretty inconvenient… Thanks a bunch!
I have the same exact issue with my new build and I’ve been trying to troubleshoot for almost a week. My motherboard detected it as a CPU issue but in reality it’s my DDR4 Ram (4x16) as well. I have also been using the xmp profile1 on my MSI Z690 Motherboard. Just wondering if you added extra volts and if your build ran safely or if there was any efficient change to stick with 64gb of ram because I would love to be able to edit in 4k but with this problem it is a huge issue. Thank you!
I had 2x sticks of 32gb DDR5 5200 C40 on my Z790-E - could not use XMP without BSOD.

I’ve got 4 sticks of Trident Z5 6400 CL32. When I turn on XMP I, the voltage is correctly set to 1.4v which is the stick was rated for. I’ve tried to set the voltage to 1.435 (without enabling high voltage mode) and set “by per pmic) but it won’t POST.
I’ve enabled high voltage mode and set it to 1.5 and still no dice. I think I’m going to try something below 6000mhz.
@@meochan913 dude dont pump too high, you will burn your cpu, be caerful!!
my advice is go back and reset you bios, turn xmp on, leave it at 1.4v and try lowering your ram frequency from 6400 to 6300 or 6200 or 6100 or 6000, just toggle those it might work.. but dont pump your voltage more than 1.4

I have 4x16gb, 6400 mhz, cl32, G.Skill Trident Z5 memory. With the method you showed, I was able to get 5800 Mhz. (1.40000v + 5800 mhz)
For an hour I tried to reach 6000-6200-6400 MHz with different voltages, but the BIOS never POSTed. (Actually I can't go above 1.43500v in BIOS. It automatically overwrote 1.45000 to 1.43500)
I look forward to the new video on 6000+ Mhz performance and many thanks for this solution!
If you are using Asus then there should be a “high DRAM voltage mode” (switch it to Enabled) that unlocks that 1.435 limit but use with caution!

Honestly with a little bit more voltage tweaking on the memory controller you probably could push it higher however I am comfortable with 5400mhz stability.

Wish I had seen this vid months ago.
I didn't have any issues until I had updated to a newer bios back in August, and I've been struggling with it since.
For some other folks who run into this issue,
👉I would like to re-emphasize how important it is to pull your RAM out and put it back in. 👈
Just doing the memory voltage and PMIC tweaks alone did not get me to POST.
If you can't post after switching these settings, turning off your PSU and draining power(hitting power button) doesn't work either, you HAVE to remove the RAM sticks.

XMP I + these settings on an ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-E Gaming Wifi Motherboard (BIOS ver. 1202) + 4 DIMMs x 32 GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 5600 MHz (CMH64GX5M2B5600C36) works fine as of 05/08/2023. The maximum I could go for without these changes was 4800 MHz, on 2 DIMMs or 4 DIMMs on default settings. I can confirm 4 DIMMs on XMP I or II forces the system into the boot loop with no display, without these changes. Thanks heaps.
Worked for me! Without removing the ram! Subed as a thank you! Clever guy!!!
+1 for switching from A1/B1 to A2/B2 slots.. Corsair Vengeance 2x32gb 6400MT/s, Asus Prime z790-A worked flawless!
Thank you for the PMIC tip!
I have 6000mhz ram but I have 128gb (x4 sticks) and apparently you can't run the Ram that fast if you have all 4 slots used. So after picking the 6000mhz XMP preset, I then went to the speed setting and lowered it manually to 5000. But without the PMIC, even that didn't work.
5600 with 4 sticks has been working since alder lake release. The issue was anything higher than 5600 would fail. Today you can do 6400 with xmp
To this day this problem continues. Two weeks ago I built a z790-e rog strix and my first option was 16x4 7200mhz ddr sticks, there was no way for it to boot with XMP. It only started if I set them by default to 4800 MHz, I changed the 4 16x4 sticks to two 32x2 Corsair dominator titatinum 6600 MHz sticks and they work perfectly even making them reach 6800 MHz with the factory xmp profile, I advise you not to touch the voltages because if you ruin the ram for that reason, they will not refund your money, you will have to wait for a bios to come out that allows you to have 4 sticks
I'm sitting here with a MSI Tomahawk Z790 and a 13700K I bought at Best Buy yesterday. Got it all together and everything was wonderful. Then in the middle of Red Dead Redemption2 it totally blacked out, dead shut off. Then came back on and boot loop. It never post another picture on the monitor even after 25 or so boot ups. I was on a failsafe bios setting.
First thing I checked was my thermal paste. Just to see if it went south after getting hot. All was awesome there. Then went to the old Z390 9900K combo I had the ram and 6800xt graphics card working with yesterday. Everything booted right up with no failures.
I was getting 15 fps easy in 4k above my old 9900K. I benched it out in CPUz and it was all in line with other 13700's performance wise. Heat staying below 75 in gaming. CPUID was showing MAX 75, but I never seen it hit that ever. Which was hot to an extent, but I was pushing the 6800xt at 100%. I have a fairly new 850 Corsair PSU, so with no real strain on the system it has to be either the processor or the motherboard. I tried to just take the graphics card and battery out and boot with the 13700K but still stuck in a boot loop.
I like so much to get it figured out, but hate the investment into a motherboard that is so fragile if it turns out to be the issue.
ASRock Z790-C, 12.06; 4 x 5600, 1.25; -- did the VDD, VDDQ and separated the PMIC. Relearn took awhile, but I'm operating at 5600, XMP profile. This is still valid today.
I have the Asus Z790 Maximus Extreme with 2 dominator 5200Mhz 32gb sticks, tried this fix with no luck, although it did eventually bring me back where I could enter the bios again. Bios is up to date also.
Just have to keep looking for a fix!
Thankk so much for this video. Its helped me to solve the same DDR5 64GB 4xDIMM 6200MHz in an ASUS Maximus Z690 Extreme with BIOS Version 2204 and a i9-13900K. Got it working with CPU O/C at 5.8GHz and memory at 5800. All using the main principles you so well explain.

For people who still run into this issue.. not all the settings he provides work 100% of the time. I have 4x 16gb sticks. I managed to get 2 working. 4 is a straight up no go. I used XMP 2 on mine. I also used sync because per pmic would still make it loop for me. So i would suggest trying different combinations of the settings he provides. It can differ per build what works.
I had 4 working previously with these exact instructions and tested it pretty rigorously. Now after bios update its not posting with 4. Ugh back to square 1.
@@tooManyMidgets Same thing happened to me this week on the latest ASUS Strix x790 E BIOS. I had to lower my XMP memory speed from 5600 to 4800 to get it to boot.
You legend!! I cant explain to you how many vids and posts steer you down the wrong direction! In saying that though it is so ridiculous we need to manually chamge settings like this to get it running with xmp.
Thanks!!! it was so helpfull!!! that solved , we had BSOD many times until we changed that suggested, basically the XMP its not working on DDR5. maybe future BIOS update could fix it
Bro, thanks. I am not even using an Intel system. Using AMD 7950X3D. Your video randomly came up with me not finding a solution to booting. However, you just kept saying the system will take time to train the memory. Wait up to 10minutes. So I waited, waited, and waited. Well I guess it trained the ram because my system finally booted up. Never once out of the many many builds I've done have I ran into this situation. Thanks again!
I’m running a z690 aswel but with 128 gigs of DDR5 6000 RAM.
I used this guide and upped my volts form default 1.4 to 1.435 and it booted into the so first run through. Iv been on the loop train for hours before this video
Thank you sir! Little unstable at 5600. Dropped to 5400 and so far, so good.
you're an absolute legend, got my 64gb of corsair dominator ram at 6200 mhz working! thanks so much.
Hello, Ali. Are your rams 4x16 and what is your voltage? Thanks.
@@mahmuthemsin8333 yep, 4 sticks of 16gb corsair dominator 6200 mhz.. works like a charm now
@@aliazimi91 what is your VDD and VDDQ voltage value? By the way, are you Turkish?
@@mahmuthemsin8333 i copied the exact settings from the video.. and no i am not turkish.
Work with my Corsair Dom 6200 DDR5 , had to power down the system and pull the memory. Works great now.
It didn't work... I think this is almost it though!
MSI z790 board doesn't have the "sync pmc" setting anywhere I can see (so I can't un-sync it). Closest setting is "link/ unlink" which gives options for voltage for each stick (and the single vdd vddq setting disappears)... tried setting every stick vdd vddq to 1.3... still doesn't work.
Ram is corsair vengeance 5600.
Also tried same with setting the msi "try it" setting to 5200/4800 and still doesn't work.
I can get my Gigabyte Z790 Aero G to boot by changing these settings and windows is totally stable but as soon as I do a restart I get the boot failure detected message again but if I shut down instead of reboot then it always boots up fine. Gigabytes bios is super buggy.
Im building my own rig with 2 ddr5s. This video made was a complicated issue for me - simple. Cheers mate!
I have 2 sticks of 16 GB DDR5 5600 and it won't post. Did you have a similar issue?
@@noonerofl i get bsod with 2 sticks of 16gb ddr5 5600. But if i remove a stick its fine.
@@Edgycoo I got my ram to run at 5600 MHz with two sticks, but I had to increase the voltage to 1.35 V from the 1.2 V in the XMP profile. If one stick seems worse, you can try to RMA it for a new one. Reading posts online, it seems DDR5 isn't very stable beyond 4800 MHz out of the box.
@@noonerofl ill give it a shot.
Thanks for everything. I have Gskill DDR5 (4x16GB) 6000 mhz ram. After long trials, I was able to run Gskill DDR5 (4x16GB) ram at 1.40 volts at 5800 mhz on the Asus Rog Strix Z690 motherboard by following the steps in this video. The system has been running stable for a few days. The system starts at 6000 mhz at 1.40 volts, but it does not work stable. I think it is necessary to give more than 1.40 volts for stable operation at 6000 mhz. However, the support team of the manufacturer of the rams said that it is risky to give voltage above 1.40 volts. There is no rule that it will work in the same way for people with the same system. However, I wanted to share it for informational purposes. I would like to say that the people who apply it are at their own risk. Have a nice day.
OMG! it works!
Now the ram speed works fine at 6000MHz. Thanks a lot. 🙏🏻
are you a amd user by any chance?
Awesome. I dont know why it took me a while to find this. Thank you so much.
Man this video saved me. I didn’t have the bios loop but the oc kept freezing after 10’mins of running. This fixed that. Z690 formula.
Hey i just installeed 32 more gb ram into my rig with 4 sticks instead of 2
Had no issue with xmp on 32 gb but after getting new ram my pc restart alot. What Can i do?
Success! You got the shit working. I am looking to build a new PC with 128 GB of RAM. I'm a video editor using Adobe Premiere, After Affects and Photoshop. I've been waiting to build my system until a DDR5 XMP fix is available. This seems to work. Thank you for posting this video. It is very helpful.
What voltage did you use for vdd and vddq?
Problem still exists in the latest Asus Z790 as of September 2024. In fact, I think the newer BIOS made the issue worse over the 2023 BIOS I was using.
Hi Dude, many many thanks , you solved my issue with Corsair Titanium on Gigabyte Z790 Pro X
I Just tried this with 64 GB Ram, DDR5 @ 6000 (4 sticks of XPG), didnt adjust voltages (voltages on latest bios update already higher than 1.3 as default) but changed the PMIC voltages from "Sync all PMIC's to "By Per PMIC" and worked first shot. have 12900K, Z690-F Mother board and again 4 sticks of XPG 16GB DDR5 Ram. Awesome it worked. Wondering if I should try again with having the PMIC voltages to Sync all (With XMP) but just going to leave for now as its working perfect here now. Thanks
