Yes. JEDEC is failing TM5 and reboots randomly, while EXPO fails to boot on first try when cold, but is stable otherwise.Didn't you say JEDEC was failing TM5? maybe add a bit of VDIMM at 4800 and see what happens. Bit more VSOC probably helps too since you have faster UCLK at JEDEC than expo lol
The Gene is looking so sad, what an absolute unit of a OC board just sitting around collecting dust while the Raphael UMC trips over itself as soon as it touches DDR5. Meanwhile 13th gen can do it, but doesn't have a decent matx board to do it on
You are right of course, it's just that I paid so much on shipping to RMA the B550I Aorus AX (twice!) that I just don't want to do it again
I don't think the RAM has any issues running at JEDEC - why would it? It's a 6000 kit, after all - but a bit more SoC voltage could help. Or maybe switching back to 1:2 mode and 1200 MHz UCLK.

I don't see the Gene at UK stores. If I decide to ditch this crappy thing, my options will be the ASRock Riptide, the Asus TUF, or the Gigabyte Aorus Elite. The Riptide seems suspiciously cheap, and I'm not a big fan of Gigabyte, so I'm left with the TUF as the only choice. There's also the Asus Prime and Gigabyte Gaming X, but they both look even more poorly equipped than my current MSi Pro.
I know that feeling with the RMA.
