Arrived with ram set to base clock speed of 4800. Used XMP in BIOS to set it to Profile 1 - 6000 as advertised. Played ARC Raiders and BF6 for hours last night with no issues. This morning it completely froze within a few minutes of just web browsing and then again an hour later. Updated bios. Another complete freeze. The RAM (TEAM GROUP INC. FLBD516G6000HC38GBKT) is not compatible with the motherboard (MSI PRO B860-VC WiFi MS-7E41) based on MSI's QVL. The RAM does not exist according to Team Group's warranty status lookup using the serial number, nor is it on their vulcan product spec sheet.
The system can now run Firefox stably after down clocking the ram to Profile 2 - 5600 but I think I'm going to return it and get the brand new Alienware with similar specs. What a thorough disappointment.
Just opened mine...ok but got the same memory. Haven't tried to xmp it yet. Running benchmarks in 3dmark. Doing ok, low end of range for the processor but that's because others are oc'ing their gpu. I wouldn't say it's loud, but its considerably louder than my liquid cooled system. Well see how Ram does...I don't want to have to send this back...
