Sorry you are having this problem. We have seen many users with issues when using XMP profiles with DDR4 memory for some reason. That is common with any manufacture's mother boards. Some things you can try: First, clear the BIOS/CMOS. You should do this every time you insert new memory in a board, or move it to different memory slots. In the DRAM Configuration screen, don't select the XMP profile. Instead, use the DRAM Tweaker feature on that screen. Just check every item in the 3200 list, including voltage. Then Save and Exit the UEFI/BIOS and see if it completes POST. When using DIMMs of 8GB or larger, it can help to put them in the A1 and B1 slots. At least that is what was recommended in the past. Worth trying. Find the MRC Fast Boot option at the bottom of the DRAM Configuration screen. Set it to Disabled. That will cause Memory Training to occur, which helps with memory compatibility. If this helps with your memory, leave this option disabled for several starts/restarts. Then try enabling it again, if you like faster PC startups. I copied the model number (CMK16GX4M2B3200) of your memory into Corsair's Memory Finder tool, and it was not found. That was on Corsair's USA website. I see that model number in the Memory QVL, and searching on that number produces results, so it does exist. Possibly not sold in the USA market? |

While it is listed in ASRocks QVL for this board, I'd liked each of you two to call or email Corsair and ask them why they do not list a single ASRock Z270 board in their online Memory Finder. http://www.corsair.com/en-us/memory-finder Personally I find it incredulous they do not. Then ask them of compatibility on your kits too. Have your kits at hand when you call or include both sticks Serial Numbers if you email. Keep me posted please |

I have the exact same problem with the z270 extreme 4 the XMP works in single channel but not in dual i moved both sticks to single channel mode.
The thing is its listed as working in the list, i guess we have to wait till BIOS update...

I used PC Part picker to select some DDR4 memory for my Z270 Pro 4 motherboard.
I purchased 2 x 8Gb Corsair CMK16GX4M2B3200C Unfortunately if I load the XMP profile it doesn't boot at all. I have tried a range of speeds/timings and the only speed I can boot at is 2133Mhz which is a lot less than the 3200MHz I expected. Has anyone else used this memory with this motherboard or should I return it and get something else? Thanks
