Hello, I was wondering if You could help me with my problem.
Problem: New computer (made by me), is restarting or getting BSOD Machine Check Exception after 20-40 minutes testing stability by LinX.
Workaround: Changed default RAM frequency from 2666 to 2133 Mhz
Spec:
i5 9600k (not overclocked)
gigabyte z390 gaming x (default settings, bios version upgraded to F5)
be quiet! Pure Power L8 CM 630W
adata 16gb (2*8) 2666mhz xpg z1 red cl16, 1.2V
Gtx 1070
Some tests:
- LinX with 2666Mhz ADATA memory: computer gets BSOD after 30-50minutes
- LinX with 2133MhZ ADATA memory: 3 hours test completed without error
- Gaming session Battlefield V multiplayer: 2 hours no problem with ADATA 2666Mhz/2133Mhz
- MEMTEST86 with 2666Mhz ADATA memory: 3 hours test completed without error
- Windows memory diagnostic with 2666Mhz ADATA memory: completed without error
- Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool with 2666Mhz ADATA memory: completed without error
I borrowed from a friend other memory: 2 x 8 GB patriot white led ddr4 3200Mhz and I have other results:
- LinX with 3200Mhz PATRIOT memory: LinX test stopped after 30-50minutes, no BSOD but LinX error appear
- LinX with changed PATRIOT 3200Mhz to 2666Mhz: LinX test stopped after 30-50minutes, no BSOD but LinX error appear
- LinX with changed PATRIOT 3200Mhz to 2400Mhz: LinX test stopped after 30-50minutes, no BSOD but LinX error appear
- LinX with changed PATRIOT 3200Mhz to 2133Mhz: 3 hours test completed without error
Additional: problem appear in F4 bios version and the newsest one F5 that should improved RAM stability
Some voltages and temp:

Conclusion: as you can see (cpu - voltages and temp), CPU power package is much smaller in gaming than in LinX (61.50W vs 91.65W) and also when I am using 2133Mhz is smaller than with 2666Mhz (89.89W vs 91.65W). Maybe here is a problem. I will add that my motherboard has 2 power sections for CPU:
1) ATX 12V 8pin
2) ATX 12V 4pin

Because my PSU has only ATX 12V 8pin my motherboard does not use additional ATX 12V 4pin. I had read that this additional ATX 12V 4pin is for extreme CPU overclocking I did not do it. What you think? Maybe my CPU needs this additional ATX 12V 4pin durning LinX test?
