    Hi I have recently suddenly had my system just constantly giving whea uncorrectable error and pc not booting with 6d errorcode.

    Anyway after playing around with bios settings, I found the xmp profile now makes my pc unstable, I have had xmp enabled for a year odd, what would suddenly make it unstable?

    Only thing I changed quite a few weeks ago was new bios update 3403.

    WHEA uncorrectable are CPU cache, execution and op errors, bad memory configs and imc errors fall into another line of stop codes

    XMP memory configs and overclocks blur the lines, with high end memory because to run memory at higher speeds than the cpu actually is capable of the uncore clock is usually raised as well - with the cache being part of the uncore.

    look in the bios for a possible uncore divisor.

    No, that isn't normal.

    historically it can be a lack of imc voltage,
    cpu socket / heatsink mounting issue
    damaged sticks
    damage imc
