So now there is picture in my head of some hairy dude standing in front of a TV with a shaving device applied to a motherboard.

Thanks
You're welcome :roll:

In all fairness, it was done with a screwdriver...
He also managed to break one of the dividers between the rear slots where add-in cards goes, don't ask me how, even on an aluminium case.

This make me wonder if my problem is that ASUS has screwed up their latest BIOS versions......

Easy to test, roll back the UEFI/BIOS.

No, I am using the same BIOS.
All memory are in use and in the Task manager the memory is reported as 32,0GB and the speed is 3000MHz but the speed seams to be wrong here.
In HWiNFO64 under Memory it also reports 32 GB and Clock 1500.0 MHz and Mode is Single-Channel, as expected.

At least it works, 6 hours now with full load under folding and no error. (y)

That's the correct speed for it, it's 1500Mhz doubled up for 3000 MT/s.

Usually, it's just mounting pressure, some pins don't make proper contact in the CPU socket and you lose memory channels.

You try backing up the tension the heatsink mount is applying by adjusting the screws a tiny bit. It should save you from a complete disassemble.

I had the CPU in the socket when I was trying to remove the motherboard's backplate it was glued on so it was really hard to take off I just left the CPU in its socket so I think it's not in there right
