The likely issue is that the board you have has a early bios which is not fully stable with the late production DDR4 memory with more aggressive timings. Z170 was released during the DDR3 to DDR4 transition. Early production DDR4 has much less aggressive timings when compared to late production modules like the most recent 3200 CL16 sticks. BIOS updates usually are released later in the life time of the board to deal with these issues. What you see is a classic memory instability issue due to instability between the memory and the memory controller. This is similar to how DDR5 8200 memory is not guaranteed to be stable at rated speeds on all but the most high end overclocking boards and only with the best bined CPUs. This happened when we went from DDR2 to DDR3 and DDR3 to DDR4. You will see this issue again with current DDR5 boards whenever we go from DDR5 to DDR6.
I had encountered these issues a number of times where the boards doesn't support higher clocked modules but works just fine with modules that are old/slower, some are solved by simply updating the BIOS to a latter version but some are not because the board manufacturers doesn't provide an updated version of the BIOS (maybe because the memory controllers on their boards don't support higher parameters clock speed).
Found this exact board with a 6600K from the trash bin, I was surprised that it worked perfectly fine. I'll probably use that combo for some project as I have a Z170-A & 6700K on my media rig already.
@@zackzeedyou don’t understand here. The cap file is an encrypted with headers. It only works if you use asus ez flash. If you want to use external flash, like this case, you need to decrypt and remove headers, extract uefi body only. Asus rename does nothing but … rename, which doesn’t help at all.
I always insert the CPU one corner first. My daughter used this method since she was 10 years old and she never missed, never bent any pins, ever. My programmer knows how to handle the BIOS from ASUS all by itself. It's an old one, an EZP2019+
on daisy chain layouts the first physical trace is a2 and or b2 ("or" for single channel cpus, "and" for dual) * i think the single channel cpu will connect to either of them as well. a1 is daisy chained on a2 and b1 the same on b2. On T- topology layouts there could be differences. Need to check the manual about memory configuration based on the motherboard mem layout and cpu
I see alot of comments saying so let me clear the sky single channel memory is 10% loss on cpu performance (may very between generations) but dual channel is the way to go with old and new cpus so NWR i suggest you install the ram in dual channel mode (also the slots are colour coded so itll be easy) congratulations on the successful reapir
