Greetings all,
Purchased a ROG Strix B450 F MB a couple months back and installed 16Gb (2x8) G Skill Trident Z (F4-3200C16D-16GTZR) memory into it. The memory is listed in the QVL. I am currently running BIOS 1201. I was running BIOS 2406 and ended up flashing back to 1201 due to the USB mouse/keyboard issues getting into the BIOS in rev. 2406.
The issue that I am having is that from time to time, it fails to POST on boot. I have been running my memory at 3200ghz using the DOCP presets. This seems to work until it fails to POST and then I have to reset everything back to default settings. At the default 2133 it seems more stable about POSTing, but it does fail from time to time at the 2133 speed as well. Once in a while, not very often at all, during the initial stages, I get the steady yellow LED indicating RAM issue as well.
When it does fail, it will power up for a second and then power cycle and start again. This repeats about 5 times and then it stops trying and I get the POST screen where it tells you that something has changed and it is resetting everything to default settings. Usually I can shut power off at the power supply, give it a few minutes, and it will POST and boot normally.
Any ideas on where to go from here to see if my memory has gone bad or if it might be an issue with the MB itself?
