Nice! If mine becomes unstable then I'll give those settings a shot. But I'm running 0801 or whatever version is prior to 0906 (can't remember) and things seem good with xmp enabled. I'll probably find out in the morning after my PC has been off for a couple of hours (which is when the xmp settings fail). As for the reinstall.. yeah, that was fun. Win7 and nvme pci-e drives are a pain in the butt. There are a few guides on how to make it possible which really come in handy. But luckily, seems like I finally made my 960 Evo bootable with Windows 7. Anyways, thanks for listing those settings for the stable xmp-matching clocks. Cheers

I'll be reinstalling Windows 10 and then possibly back to Windows 7 by tomorrow (So many issues with Windows 10 but I can't boot from my Evo 960 pcie m2 drive off of Windows 7). That's a whole other issue though. I'll be going back to a previous bios (0801) and I'll give that a shot and I'll post back here with the results. Hopefully I'll be able to just set it to XMP with manual dram voltage and it'll work (wishful thinking). Either way, fingers crossed. I'll let you know vicster.

I'm having a similar issue but with an Asus z270 Tuf Mark 2 board. I've pretty much tried everything. Manual clocks, voltage. There may be other settings I need to change manually that I'm not aware of as this board as so many different memory options than my previous z97. The only thing that seemed to work for a while was going through the "Oc Tuner" on the board. With that (7% system OC), memory went up to 2933mhz with same clocks/voltage as XMP. However, after running it for a little under a week I noticed some odd behavior on my system so I've had to go back to stock configuration which is 2133mhz. At this point, I'd be fine with running the memory at 2400mhz but I can't even do that either. Board's bios is the latest (0906) and I've already read other people saying the previous version for the z270 seems to work fine with XMP. Can anyone else confirm this ? Or does anyone have the same board/memory as I and is able to use XMP @ 3000mhz ? Board: Asus Z270 Tuf Mark 2 CPU: I7 6700k Memory: CMK16GX4M2B3000C15 Cheers.
