Flash Drive Error and Voltage/Stability Issues

So I bought 2 sets of 2X16 64GB. I put them on an Asus ROG Maximus XI Hero Z390 board. Now I had to buy a 64GB kit first and not 2 sets of 32GB separately, but in the end it didn't matter. XMP (Profile I and II) immediately recognized the flash drives and filled in the settings in the BIOS. From there, rebooting was a cycle through the power settings trying to adjust the voltage to be able to boot, manual settings seemed to give the same results. Each time after 3-4 email failures, access to windows loaded and opened. Under Windows 4 sticks are registered correctly in most cases. I kept encountering memory errors and crashing out of Windows. Through trial and error I finally saw that 3 sticks out of 4 were stable but only at 3200 (max) and not 3600. After spending 2 days and countless hours of trial and error and not testing again and again I just sent them back and bought another more expensive brand with tighter timings and better voltage management.

Pros
  • Easy Setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
