    X99, the first hiccup?


    This is not the best thing that could happen to a NEW board. i do hope they fix it and, LR are NOT the only ones to have this happen.

    This morning I woke up bright and early to benchmark some DDR4 memory kits and found myself waking up not to Folgers in your cup, but the smell of burnt electrical after loading the XMP profiles on a memory kit and restarting the system. Let me tell you what happened, the best I can.

    The Gskill RAM is speced at 1.2v (I understand all DDR4 is 1.2 - 1.35v). But XMP should have set that, shouldn't it? Did you manually set the voltage higher?
