Hello,
I have installed a new configuration with an ASUS Maximus Z890 Hero motherboard and an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K equipped with 4 x DDR 5 CORSAIR Vengeance 32 GB 5600MT/s RAM agreed by ASUS.
My BIOS is up to date with version 1901 dated 06/04/2025
OS : Windows 11 Pro 24H2
For several weeks now I've had regular pc crashes during my gaming sessions and also blue screens.
When I do a windows memory test I get a message telling me that there is a memory problem.
If I only install one barette, the test shows no memory problem and the system seems stable.
Do you have a solution?

Same issue with 4x32 5600MT Kingston Fury, also listed in the qvl. I have 2 different CORSAIR kits coming on Monday but now worry that it's the board... have you heard anything from Asus?

I also already wrote here about problems with Corsair memory. They weren’t on the QVL list. I sold them and bought new G.Skill Trident Z5 CK RGB DDR5 48GB (2 x 24GB) 8800 CL42. I set it to XMP II. The first boot went fine. While working, I got a system error: “MEMORY_MANAGEMENT.” I switched to XMP I. Everything was still working yesterday. Today I turned on the computer and didn’t even get to the desktop. Error – “Kernel Mode Heap Corruption.” I’m really starting to lose patience. I’m 99% sure the memory isn’t the problem. The question is – what is? The motherboard or the processor? Should I return everything? The motherboard and CPU were bought in one store in the Netherlands. The memory was ordered from Poland.

I ended up ordering some Corsair RAM and have found a solution, passed Memtest86, and have been up and running with zero issues.
I got 2 different kits, the one that worked without any issues was Corsair Dominator 4x24 6400MT/s (CMP96GX5M4B6400C32)
I ran Memtest86 once without XMP and once with XMP I enabled and passed all 4 passes both times, since I've run DIMM Fit and am using the profile it generated.
The second kit of RAM was Corsair Vengeance 4x32GB 5600MT/s(CMH128GX5M4B5600C40) and after failing early in the first pass of Memtest86 with default and XMP I I was able to pass by using XMP I but down clocking to 4800MT/s and that machine has been stable since.
We're using these as CAD workstations and they've both been working incredibly well since passing Memtest86, hopefully they figure out the issue and update the BIOS to allow all of the CVL RAM to function out of the box...
We're using BIOS 1901
