So I have a build I'm doing with all brand new parts, and after switching from dual 390X crossfire (too hot) to GTX 980s in SLI, the board now crashes consistently on boot with XMP enabled. It was working just fine previously, the crashes only started happening after swapping the GPUs. As far as I can tell, I'm having the exact same issue as these guys:
X99 SLI
Gigabyte X99 boards - RAM sensitivity? - Overclockers UK Forums
Here are the specs of the system:
i7 5820K
Corsair H100i
Gigabyte GA-X99-SLI
32GB (4x8GB) Gskill Ripjaws V DDR4 2400
2x EVGA GTX 980
Samsung 850 Pro 256GB
WD Blue 4TB
EVGA Supernova 1000P
Thermaltake Level 10 GT
Windows 10 64
Updated the BIOS to the latest version, no change. I tried swapping the Gskill kit out for a tested working Crucial Ballistix kit with the same specs (4x8GB DDR4 2400), no change.
After every crash / failed boot, the system will then POST with the 'boot failure detected' error. If I go into BIOS and then exit without saving, Windows will then load. What's odd is that memtest and Prime95 are completely stable, no errors.
I'm completely baffled as to why this would start happening after changing out the video cards - I didn't touch the memory at all during the swap, and it worked flawlessly with XMP enabled previously.
Any ideas?
