Hello ASUS ROG Community, I'm facing the following issue. I did several testing and stress tests, once I activate XMP Profile my CPU with everything on default downclocks after a few seconds in stress tests with and without AVX instructions on from 4.3GHz to 3.9GHz. I used Prime95, AIDA and OCCT for stress testing. Weirdly, I reach 1.406V on stock with SVID set to Best Scenario and MCE off. If I don't activate the XMP Profiles every stress test works like a charm. In order to solve this issue I manually OCed my CPU to 4.7 GHz & 1.264V but I would like to run at stock speeds of Intel with the turbo boost since I don't really need 4.7GHz for now for my daily gaming.
What can I possible do to avoid this issue? My issue is the same with this guys topic:

Shall I set my RAM clocks manually and use VCCIO at 1.1 (as I'm currently using for the 4.7 GHz / All Core)? Do I have to adjust/tweak any other setting? I only want to run with MCE disabled, SVID Support -> Best Case Scenario so my voltages are better than the Worst Case scenario on auto and run at stock speeds instead of 4.7GHz. I'm satsified with my stability of the system so far, I did 2 prime95 tests, one for an hour and another one for 4 hours, also under gaming my CPU runs at ~50 celcius and during stress test max ~75C and average ~60-65 with AVX disabled (Prime95 -> 1344) since I don't use any AVX apps.
Hopefully someone can help me solve this issue
Kind regards and thanks in advance!
