I'm starting to think that 9900k have weaker IMC on average than i though. I managed to boot 4700 dual channel with 2 cores active. 4800 is no go. I gave the kit to a friend with m10a and 9900k but he can't boot 4700 or 4800 in dual either.
Feel free to share your experiences with 9th gen cpu and high speed ram
I have 9900k (custom water cooling) and Asus Apex XI (bios 1401). Starting Windows is fine (xmp). But my 9900k has a weak IMC - linx test on 4800cl18 with errors.
Raising voltage does not solve the problem. The motherboard is ready, but the IMC in the existing Intel technology is not ready for such a memory frequency
