Hey everyone! I recently upgraded to an I9-14900k processor paired with an MSI Z790 Carbon WIFI motherboard and I'm using 7200MHz CL34 Corsair RAM. After enabling XMP, I started encountering stability issues and errors in OCCT. To address this, I dialed down the RAM speed to 6400MHz and the errors went away, but I'm still experiencing some occasional stutters. Any tips on how to improve stability or tweak the settings further?

Try increasing the speed gradually from stock to see where stability starts. Sometimes, subtle adjustments can make a big difference!
Remember that overclocks aren't always stable, so it's possible you've hit a limit with your memory controller. Just keep experimenting with the settings!
I did manage to get it stable at 6400MHz, but I'm still getting those annoying stutters when playing Valheim.
