Maybe consider trying the Grizzly contact frame. That cpu is so long compared to earlier generations and there are issues with even cooling. For $35 on Amazon might be worth a try. I converted over to it after my initial build and have constant even Temps across all cores at an average of 5 to 10 degrees cooler than using the motherboard retention clip.

I did not use my Thermalright contact frame because it seems any modifications would result in the processor being run outside of specifications and may void any product warranties.

I'm not sure if it is true but it would be a nice mod when you're sure there is no need to RMA a CPU or Motherboard.

Try

1. Set XMP II
2. Set VDDQ/VDD to 1.45v
3. Set CPU System Agent Voltage to 1.3v
4. Go to Advanced Memory Voltages: set Memory Controller Voltage to 1.35v

See if this helps.

Thank you guys for the suggestions. I will do them and let you know how it goes.

I tried your suggestion. Unfortunately, it dosen't work same problem it runs perfectly for 30 min after that apps dont open. I will try now to reset it and see from up there.

Could it be a heat issue with the RAM Temps?  

[SallonikaBoy]

Hi, no i have checked it also never goes higher than 45-50 degrees.

you guys see there is a new bois out?

[SallonikaBoy]

Still the same! No clue at the moment what to do more. Waiting from asus support a response, lets see what they have to say. One thing is for sure. Never again asus motherboards! Bought a € 500 motherboard and for over a week now i am trying to figure what is wrong.

Yes, Bios 1303. I tried it and has the Same flaw as 1202.  It kills my WiFi and Bluetooth.  The error messages clearly show what is wrong, which are the same issues as the 1202 version.

My resolve, again, to downgrade to previous 0904 version.

Both SW & HW engineers need to put their heads together and resolve the issue at hand. I have opened a post about this yesterday

So I guess next bios will be 1404?

May that be a working version by then as 3x is a charm.

Respect !
