I have just put together a new system with has

ASRock Z370M-ITX/ac CPus

Intel 8th Gen I5 8600k

EVGA 650 GQ 80+ Gold 650W

Corsair Hydro H60

16Gb Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2400MHz

And an Old GPU Since this system will just be used for hosting Online game servers / chat server for me and my friends

The problem I am having is it keeps freezing at random points E.G Bios menu or if i boot into windows and leave it for a bit it freezes. I have searched around the forums and seen people say about disabling XMP or lowering Vccio or Vccsa. but I'm not really sure about how to go about doing this not never really messed with the BIOS setting before

I have tried updating the BIOS to the latest 3.10 but that does not seem to have helped

I have also tried manually setting the DRAM frequency to 2400 and disable MRC Fast boot which I read could help but none of these have helped at all and I still keep getting the freezes.
