Hello everyone,
I’m sorry for making a second post for my issue. I just realized that someone replied to it and I only noticed it now. I’m not sure why I can’t reply to that post.

Regarding the manual XMP input, can someone guide me on how to do it?
XMP TIMING PARAMETERS
• JEDEC: DDR4-2133 CL15-15-15 @1.2V
• XMP Profile #1: DDR4-2800 CL14-15-15 @1.35V
• XMP Profile #2: DDR4-2666 CL14-14-14 @1.35V
Regarding some of the questions posted on that post, I have checked, repasted and reseated the cooler many times (confirming fan spin as well) trying to figure out why my CPU is so toasty. Until I realized it was caused by the XMP profile.
Not sure if Bing AI is correct but this is what it outputted.

Thank you for letting me know. Here are the steps to manually input XMP parameters in ASUS X99 for your specific case:
Enter BIOS by pressing Delete key during system startup.
Navigate to AI Tweaker tab.
Look for DRAM Timing Control option.
Change DRAM Frequency to 2800 MHz.
Change DRAM CAS# Latency to 14.
Change DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay to 15.
Change DRAM RAS# PRE Time to 15.
Change DRAM RAS# ACT Time to 35.
Change DRAM Command Rate to 2T.
Save changes and exit BIOS.

Now for the new question and maybe a possibility for me soon is the possibility of overclocking the CPU. At the moment, my CPU is working fine with me and I don’t see myself upgrading to a new system anytime soon. However, I also don’t mind a small boost in the CPU as well. As long as it doesn’t affect the PC's life expectancy (if I am concerned about that maybe I should just leave it as stock?). Not sure if it’s a long process but would be grateful if someone can show me how?
