CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM DDR5 5600Mhz DOESN'T WORKS WITH Z690 EXTREME (SLI neither)

[beryl]

I can't use XMP 1 or XMP 2, hte computer only starts with "AUTO" setting. What can i do? (with this motherboard i have the problem with SLI/NVLINK that it can't be enabled and NOW the XMP with a Corsair RAM). Whats is happen with this expensive z690 extreme motherboard?... everything are problems... i'm with BIOS 811 (latest) and the problems persists...

Dominator Platinum 5600 CL36 is working fine with both XMP1/2 on my Z690 Maximus Extreme Glacial and 1101 bios.

Glacial ok, non glacial and 64, not ok.

Apex fine .....same kit OC's far better than any previous Corsair Dominators as the 5600 C36 kit is Samsung....previous were Micron....mine are at 6000 C36 with very little effort 🙂

I´m using extreme z690 with 4x16 5600, was running these memories at stock "auto" tryed turning on the xmp and ended up having to downclock from 5600 to 5200 to run it stable (otherwise the bios wouldnt boot). Never touched the voltage or anything like that when i turned on the XMP profile, i guess we have to wait for bios updates for the compatibility issues.

Sounds like normal behavior when combining memory kits.

I'm using Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 2 x 16G 5600 c36 in XMP I and had some issues during the build, with boot loops and hanging on restarts, but after installing every update after I finished installing Windows 11 the problems mysteriously went away. The system is very stable now with 5.2Mhz overclock all cores.

I tried using the Asus AI overclocker in AI Suite like I do with every build and this time it gave me some insane percentage overclock, like 68% and the system was unstable. I set it for 5.2 all cores hyperthreading off, and everything else on Auto for now and everything seems fine with the various CPU benchmarks returning results on par or slightly better than what the typical numbers from the community show.

Fingers crossed things hold and bios updates continue to improve stability and performance. Especially for this insanely expensive DDR5 we're forced to use with this board. It's disappointing that at twice the bandwidth and with numerous architecture advantages over DDR4 no reviews are showing it as any different than good DDR4 ram and in some cases the DDR5 performance is worse than DDR4 (That was true early on with DDR4 over DDR3 though, so we'll have to be patient)

I have 2 x 16GB Corsair dominator RGB 5600Mhz, with XMP II running stable.

I am in the process of updating to 2 x 32GB (4 x 16GB would not work well).
