Build:
Ryzen 1700x
G.Skill F4-3200C14D-32GTZSW
Crosshair VI
Was up running fine on BIOS 902, then the machine suddenly died. I can access BIOS, but once an operating system tries to load I get bootloops or freezes with Q-code 8, RAM light flashing. Things I've tried:
- Bootable Windows 10 USB; bootloops similarly to loading a Windows drive
- memtest on both 16gb sticks, both show no errors. Sometimes catches at "memory controller" initialization step if RAM voltage is set too low
- Drive boots into Windows 10 fine on another machine
- Tried both new BIOS versions and reinstalled 902, clearing CMOS each time.
Any ideas on what I could try to save my build?

Only thing I haven't tried is a complete rebuild, which I'm going to do after I get some new thermal paste.

Like I said, let me know if a new mobo does the trick! Hope it goes smoothly for you.
