Update if someone else runs into this: turning on the advanced boot training (or rather, setting it to auto) fixed the issue and I can now run my RAM at XMP settings (3200 14-14-14-34-48) (or so it seems for now).

sorry missed first post

my taichi plays around similar

the ram is gskill cl15 tridentz
it will not cold boot at cl14 whatever i try, yet will reboot/warm boot fine

my story is very much the hare and tortoise

from day one in early april on all bios my ram set xmp to 3200 fine
yet i cannot get timings better or speed higher with any later bios unlike some guys who now rock 3400-3600 speeds

i seem to be the hare that actually lost the race haha

Welp I guess no one ran into this issue. The Stilt gave me a list of a few settings to tweak (ProcODT, GDM, the CR and CLDO_VDDP voltage), none of which worked unfortunately. I really can't tell if 1.0.0.6a broke something or if my mobo / RAM went defective on me. Is it even possible for ASRock to add boot voltage settings in a BIOS update ? If not, I guess next time I should do my homework better when purchasing a motherboard as the fact it warm boots fine and the C6H people with a boot voltage setting not having the issue really seems to be pointing towards that being the culprit.

Hello everyone,
I used to have my f4-3200c14d-32gtz (G.skill Trident Z 2x16GB 3200MHz) RAM working at XMP settings stably on both 2.40 and 3.00 on my X370 Taichi. Unfortunately, it suddenly stopped working after cold boots a few days ago. Basically if I OC and warm boot, it will run fine; but as soon as I cold boot, it will go into this loop of restarting less and less abruptly and after maybe 7 reboots it will boot at stock settings. I tried lowering the frequency: 3066 MHz will have the same issues; 2933 works. I also tried raising SOC voltage to 1.15V and DDR voltage to 1.40V but neither helped. I also tried all configurations of stock/OC CPU and RAM, and basically, it will happen independently of the CPU OC. What confuses me is that it worked fine for a few days on 2.40 and 3.00 and broke a couple days after the 3.00 update. Is there any way of touching the boot DDR voltage on the Taichi ? Seems to me like it would solve the issue seeing as it's one of the rare things I can see justifying why warm booting works fine but not cold booting. Note that I basically did not touch the hardware at all since setting up this computer, so I'm not sure reseating the DIMM would help. Or is this something else entirely ? Thanks for your help.

PS: I'd have trouble seeing how moving the RAM to A1+B1 will help seeing as it worked for a bit in A2+B2, unless 1.0.0.6a broke something (and the truth is, I'm reticent to move RAM to A1 given that I'm using a Noctua D15 so I simply wouldn't have clearance to have the second fan, and my temps are already pretty hot compared to some at 72C under OCCT Linpack or Prime95 at 3.8GHz@1.3V). 

PPS: The advanced training thingy is disabled, and I tried disabling fast startup in Windows but it didn't help.
