Hey guys, I'm completely depressed and I need your help.
I started out with a Intel 12900k 3.2ghz, Rog Z690-F and
2x16gb of DDR5 g.skill, 6000mhz.
Right of the bat there was something wrong.
Bios couldn't boot on xmp1 or 2 and could only boot on auto,
which resulted in lowest ram settings, 2400mhz.
That got partially fixed with bios version 1003 and
both xmp1 and 2 now booted.
When I say partially, it's because
they only work if I slot the rams in dimm 2 and 4,
not in 1 and 3 as you usually would.
Still doesn't boot in those slots.
However, I would still get random bsod,
sometimes not even that but direct crash to reboot.
After a long talk with Asus,
I replaced the rams with corsair dominator, 5600mhz.
Same deal, random crashes and bsod.
So I replaced the Z690-F with a Hero board.
Still no dice, the system is still super unstable.
I've taken the whole system apart, cpu too
and I've installed the aio with (light pressure),
as I've read that, that can be sensitive too.
I'm completely lost and besides myself.
I've always built my systems and never had this much trouble.
What the hell do I do?
There's nothing left to replace, other than the cpu.
Is the cpu dead?
