So my Asus board died on me and I had too much going on to deal with building a new rig so I got a prebuilt from pc specialist with the aorus master board. However it is extremely unstable with my memory that was fine on the Asus board

Corsair Vengeance Black 32GB 7200MHz DDR5 Memory Kit

Buy from Scan - 32GB (2x16GB) Corsair DDR5 Vengeance Black, PC5-57600 (7200), Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 34, XMP 3.0, 1.45V
www.scan.co.uk www.scan.co.uk

Any advice on how to maybe make it stable? I have it running st 5000 and cas40 but I really want some stable high speed ddr5. I just have no idea what this mother board will take

Have you checked the QVL list for the motherboard?

Of course but it seems incredibly tiny and the latest BIOS improved 6800mhz support but the qvl list still seems to have not many 6800, I do not believe it has been updated in some time to match the bios.

It's updated anytime they add more support, it's the same on any manufacturer QVL, otherwise you'd never know what RAM you can use.

Well the part number is on the list but my module number in icue is a different version to the one on the qvl. So it looks like there was revised modules

Ah yeah, I see what you mean, I've never seen that before either.

There have been reports in recent years where manufacturers have released a revision change which you would expect to be the same physical specs ie same silicon versions used, same cache amount etc, but due to loose legal guidelines, they've been getting away with using different chips from different suppliers that cost far less for greater markup, or vastly less performance Cache as an example.

Corsair are generally quite highly regarded though, I'd be surprised if they pulled something like that.

I forgot to ask, the RAM is definitely in the right DIMM slots is it? Needs to be A2 & B2 on that board
