Hello team,
I am a bit frustrated here. I could really use your help.
I just bought "a new system".
Here is the load out.
New components:
- Core i7-6700K
- MSI XPower Titanium board (latest BIOS 1.6)
- TridentZ 3400C16D-16GTZ
- Samsung 950 Pro M.2 512G
Kept from "old system"
Full Size HAF Case
Rosewilll Tachyon 1K PWS
Corsair H105 cooler
EVGA Titan X hybrid (with built in water cooling)
Samsung 850 512G SSD
Samsung 830 512G SSD
Here is my issue.
Assembled system, ensured all power was connected, etc.
Did quick boot into BIOS test, established all was working properly, flashed to new 1.6 BIOS and then went back into BIOS to enable RAID and M.2 mode and UEFI Only. Booted up in UEFI, installed Windows 10 Pro, used WU to get all drivers (except NVidia).
Went to BIOS and enabled XMP (nothing else after baseline config to get up and running). Booted into Windows and had all sorts of instability. Mainly boot issues with not finding correct boot drivers, BSOD, etc. Disabled XMP, resumed normal functional behavior.
I am a bit disappointed. All the videos on YouTube and all the articles I read on this said that the XMP worked flawlessly. I even double checked on the MSI compatibility list to ensure this memory was compatible. It read that it was.
I don't know if this is a memory issue or a MSI issue. Right now, I am running it at the 3200 mode with 1.36v setting and BF still crashes after a while of playing and Windows still has instability issues.
Can you please help? Please let me know what troubleshooting steps I can do and what screen caps / system information you need.
Thanks in advance,
-Walt
