@Froztd Hey man.
Disconnect all hardware from youre pc (when pc is shut down).
Only connect 1 monitor , 1 keyboard , 1 mouse and 1 headset to youre pc.
Download youre bios version from gigabyte site, extract it to a usb drive.
insert usb drive in a usb port and restart pc
Press END during startup pc, or go into bios by pressing DEL:
Update/flash youre bios to version F28 (the f29XXX YA DONT NEED, CAUSE YA RUN 12TH GEN CPU).
After bios upgrade, youre system will reboot and train youre memory multiple time (3 a 5 times +/-),
Dont worry its not a bootloop !!!
Let it start up windows , then restart and go back into bios:
In bios ya disable the intergrated GPU (Intel(R) UHD Graphics 770
)
Now Enable resizeable bar
Also Disable gigabyte app center
And Enable XMP profile 1
Press F10 to save and exit.
Let it boot windows
Download this GPU driver https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/230594/en-us/
And choose custom installation, select for a CLEAN INSTALL.
After install driver reboot system again.

Press Windows key + 'R' ,typ CMD
Press and hold down CTRL + SHIFT and press ENTER.

Reboot system and again this command:
Press Windows key + 'R' ,typ CMD
Press and hold down CTRL + SHIFT and press ENTER.
When User Account Control shows up, click Yes.
Use the following command lines, pressing Enter after each

Hello,
I ran SFC /SCANNOW but found no error everytime.
I ran the chkdsk /f but no error were replorted during the scan at boot.I did try overclocking my PC in the past but these settings are long gone and Bios was reset multiple times to its default settings.
I did set the memory profile to XMP 1 as you suggested in your last email.
The RAM that I'm using is: G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR5 6600 (PC5 52800).
I have attached a picture of the memory slots.
I have also attached a file containing memory and bios information as you requested.
Thank you,
Matt
