It's a common issue on consumer boards with DDR5 and more than two DIMMs installed.
Doesn’t affect soldered memory or lower speed memory (like DDR4). Many memory controllers fail to achieve good speeds and timings at all on 4 DDR5 DIMMs, and fall back to running DDR5 at 3600MHz instead.
Ok, so user selects too-high speed, controller tries for ages and fails, but doesn't save since it's overridden by user in BIOS?
I distinctly recall thinking my LPDDR5 NUCs were broken since they seemingly didn't boot the first time, until I recalled the training stuff. Took up to 15 minute on one of them. But neither has had any issues since, hence my question.
