    i upgraded to a DDR5-6000 kit, enabled XMP in the BIOS, and since then Ive been getting this every day or two:

Stop code: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT

    MEMORY_MANAGEMENT. sometimes it's Chrome that just closes instead. with XMP off everything is stable but slower. is teh RAM faulty, or is my system just not happy with the rated speed? i don't mind running a bit slower if i have to, but i paid for teh faster kit and i'd like to use it if it's possible. i want to understand what's really happening here. what am i doing wrong??

    test properly with MemTest86 from a USB stick, or TestMem5 with a stability config inside Windows, windows Memory Diagnostic misses many timing-related errors.

    oh ive been there lol four sticks put more load on the memory controller than two. its common for four sticks to need a lower speed than the profile says 🤷 try one step lower speed or slightly losoer timings.

    oh ive been there lol if one speed step down is stable, leave it there. the real-world difference is small, and stability mtaters more than a number in teh BIOS.

    thinking

    this video fixed it for me:

    XMP/EXPO profiles run memory beyond the CPU's official spec, sooo stability depends on the memory controller too. A profile that's 'rated' can still be unstable on a particular CPU and board.

    @kai_heap Dropped the speed one step with four sticks and everyhtings stable. Cant tell the difference in Chrome. cant believe it was that simple lol
