I very recently purchased F4-3200C16D-32GVK modules from NewEgg along with an ASUS ROG STRIX Z270E board. I have been having what appear to be memory issues but I think it may be a configuration problem. I see the STRIX Z270E board in the QVL for this memory (https://www.gskill.com/en/product/f4-3200c16d-32gvk) but the board's bios doesn't appear to detect it correctly, and the F4-3200C16D-32GVK doesn't show up on the ASUS ROG STRIX Z270E QVL list - https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards.../HelpDesk_QVL/ though the F4-3200C16D-16GVK does, it which how the Asus AI suite detects it (it's 2 x 16 GB modules)
Anyone know what the MB BIOS settings should be for stable performance on these modules? The board was originally set to AUTO and detected the RAM as 2133, a new Win10 install randomly blue screened about every 20 minutes. After checking that everything was seated properly, the problem continued. I removed one module and it ran for >8 hours without problems. I then put the removed module back in and removed the 'good' one, and it blue screened on booting. I ran the windows memory test on each, the first one passed and the second one reported hardware issues within a minute.
However, when I noticed the BIOS speed setting was not correct for these, I changed them to 3200, tested each individually and then together, and they all passed. However two days later I received another blue screen.
So currently I'm not sure if it's an issue with one module or it's a configuration issue.
enabling XMP appears to detect the memory correctly, but it blue screens
I set back to manual and set the settings to match the XMP ones, and lowered the speed each time I got a blue screen. Down to 2800 Mhz and another blue screen.
emailed tech support as well, waiting on response.
Any assistance would be appreciated
