Hi,
XMP profiles amp a lot more than just ram voltage
Best to set voltages/ timings manually
Actually it probably says would you like to activate All Core Enhancement
Default configuration uses by core a heck of a lot different
It switched you from using 1-2 core at that multiplier to all cores to that multiplier
Which if that's the case you might have a voltage issue on the processor or mother board if it's over volting so much to trigger fail save features.

I just built my first PC. Core components are Asus maximus x Hero, i7-8086k, noctua nh-d15, gskill trident z 3200 ram.
When I run the PC completely stock, (load optimized defaults in bios) and use prime95 to stress test, the machine turbos up to 4.3 all core and runs fine. But when I enable XMP in the bios, HWinfo shows core power limit exceeded within 15 seconds of starting prime95 and the processor downclocks.
I have tried:
XMP on and clicking NO to the next question if I would like to enhance my processor
XMP on and clicking YES, I would like to enhance my processor
XMP on and clicking YES, I would like to enhance my processor, but then disabling MCE.
Everything results in "core power limit exceeded" and cpu downclock.
All I want to do is have my ram @ 3200mhz. I want completely stock clocks for my cpu. Any help is much appreciated

I have the exact same issue with 8700K & Maximus X Hero. Exactly what you described, but in my case, I simply OCed (also amateur) my CPU to 4.7 @ 1.26V (1.264 according to CPUZ) and everything worked smoothly. I did a prime95 test with 1344 FTT (so AVX wouldn't kick in) and max temps were about 70, averaging 60 for an hour, same for another re-run of 4 hours. And Hydrocooler didn't even work at 100% of my fan speed curve.
But as far as I'm concerned I'm don't really need to run @ 4.7GHz for now since I'm covered by the Intel stock settings/turbo boost. My VCCIO is at 1.1 currently (manually). Auto is about 1.328.
If I want to run on stock do I have to setup manually the RAM values as described in my RAM spec sheet and then disable MCE and set VCCIO at 1.1 as well manually? Shall I use SVID Support -> Best case scenario for better results regarding voltages?
Also is there any problem if I use AUTO Maximus Tweak instead of Profile 1?
