Had the same with an Asus board and 2 x 32gb 6000MHz RAM. Had to switch to a Gigabyte board (not exactly a massive issue), but worth checking as I'd be surprised if Asus haven't addressed issues through BIOS updates

I went for this spec in the end, looking forward to receiving it 👍 EDIT: Changed the PSU to 1000w 😎

I was simply stating to use a driver uninstaller/cleaner. TBH I'd wipe Windows and re-install if I had a driver issue. I used to use Driver Cleaner because it worked and was safe. But I should have caveated that the latest one should be used. Looks like this is DDU. Cool👍. Am aware of how deep...

I would deffo rebuilt everything with a new PSU. The cable routing alone will be worth it. And 100% systems rebuild for a new GPU. I'd wipe and re-install every 6 months anyway, as the clean install alone gives you a performance uplift. Never mind drivers conflicting etc.

Slight change to add a couple of NVMe's instead of one. This rig won't be a work rig (unless I'm testing stuff), so just quick storage needed. I keep wanting to step up to a 1000w PSU, but PCS keep telling me I don't need to (I know I don't need to!) 😂 Case FRACTAL DEFINE 7 BLACK QUIET...

Edited into the OP👍🏻. Any advice on the questions?
