I installed 16GB's of Gskill 3000 ram. I had 8Gb 2133 gkill before this. I set the XMP to enabled in the motherboard and it auto set the timings and put the frequency at 3000. When I came back later to boot my PC I turned it on then it shut off quick and then turned back on and stayed on. I manually put the DRAM voltage to the manufacture specified 1.350 and it hasnt happened since. Could the PC of been having that issue because the ram wasnt getting enough voltage? or is it unrelated and this issue will pop back up?

It started doing it again. I'm testing it with the default bios settings now to see what happens. I will update if it happens again. I would like to have the memory running at 3000 instead of the default 2133.

Update: I set the ram timings speed and voltage manually instead of using the XMP profile. I have shut down and rebooted a few times with no issues yet. But that happened before too so I'm going to watch it. If anyone has any suggestions of what this could be I would appreciate it. My system is
MSI Tomahawk MB
i5 6600k @4.3
Gskill 16gb 3000
EVGA 980ti
Corsair CX750m


update: It happened again. I press the power button it turns on then off then on then off then on. Maybe ill jsut keep the settings at auto and the ram at 2133 instead of 3000. Unless someone has a suggestion for what I can do to keep it at those speeds. maybe up the voltage? im not really sure. When the PC boots up it runs fine. I was playing rust for a few hours straight today with no issues.
