I am constantly getting this message. I am using an intel 4790k CPU and have even tried the 4770K CPU but keep getting thefollowing message "New CPU installed. Please enter setup to configure the system".

I have entered the system setup by pressing F1 and set everythig to default,saved and exit setup to find the same message as above.

System Specs are:
Corsair Dominator Platinum 2133 mhz (Even tried with a different set of RAM,single sticks).
PSu: Coolermaster v1200 Platinum
Gtx 780
Corsair H105 Cooler
Intel 4790k CPU
MAx VII Formula MB
Bios: 0603. (Had also tried with an older bios to the same error,then upgraded bios to 0603)

Also the Ram timings are not sticking even after enabling xmp profile .
Other ram profiles are sticking for example the corsair vengence 1666mhz.

Please help.

you must have an exceptional 4790k, yours is the first I've seen that can do 32GB at 2133MHz.

DDR stands for double data rate 1066.5 x 2 = 2133. Your ram is running at 2133MHz.

Thank you for posting that.
