Not sure if this is in the right thread,

So I put together a PC 4 months ago and everything was running perfectly with the ram set to DOCPII profile of 6000 cl30.

SPECS:

3060TI
ASUS B650E-E
GSKILL DDR5 6000 CL30 X 32GB
980 PRO
7600X
1KW PSU

Then I updated the bios, and problems began. The computer started to randomly blue screen and shut down. Games will randomly crash. The only way to have the system running stable again is to have everything ram-related on auto in the bios.. which means it's now running at 4800. I've tried going back to the earlier bios, the one in which had no issues, but the system has the same stability issues when running the ram at 6000 cl30 in DOCPII.

Any ideas? Any help much appreciated. When I flashed back the bios I cleared cmos and used the flashback option on the motherboard. This ram isn't on the QVC list for the board but it was working just fine before. I've tried a clean install of win 11 too but didn't help. Another thing I tried is setting DOCPII to 6000 cl30 timings, but then just changing VDD and VDDQ from 1.35v to 1.4v but still unstable. HWmonitor shows temps are fine too but still get the crashes.

DOCPII only shows the one profile available. Looking at cpu-z, there's a table showing XMP-6000 which is the same as the one that DOCPII has.. it's 3000MHz, 30, 40, 40, 96, 136. I assume that's the max too and those are the same figures quoted on the RAM on the sales page and I guess on the sticks themselves.

So in the bios I can either pick auto, manual, or DOCPI/II so I haven't tried looser timings.

Deeper inside AI Tweaker in the bios there is drop down box with lots of profiles but I don't think those are specific to the ram I have.. they go all the way up to pretty extreme profiles
