I can tell you in a week, I have the same board and just ordered the same RAM. But I can't imagine that this could be a problem, the 3200 are the max clock of the memory, if the board can only do less, they will surely be regulated down. Have you tried using only one bar? Maybe one of them is simply defective.

Sounds like coil whine - but the causes are a little unclear to me. I never noticed this with my board. Instinctively, I would replace the board, depending on when you bought it, this can be done "directly", i.e. order the new one from Digitec to pick it up and then bring the old one with you for the replacement. If in doubt, check with support, but I've never had any problems (afaik as long as the purchase date is <30 days ago).

Here you can compare the two mainboards with each other (select Add to comparison list on each product page): https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/TUF-Z390-PRO-GAMING/ https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-Z390-F-GAMING/ I would recommend nothing less than a GTX 1660 Ti or a RTX 2060.

Hi, I'm not sure that a comment section of a sales site is the best place to get support. I think you'll get better answers on the hardware.co.uk forum, commencamarche or tom's hardware. You should also describe the problem better: which processor? which cooler? did you use the thermal paste? which RAM? did you respect the slots? which hd/ssd? which graphics card? did you use the right PCI Express slot? which monitor? how is your monitor connected (DVI, HDMI, Display Port)? did you try with the graphics card integrated in the processor ? do the fans turn ? are there any beeps at startup ? what do the motherboard lights indicate ? which power supply ? is the power supply correctly connected (main + auxiliary connector) ? Look at page 1-12 (1.1.8 Motherboard lights) of your motherboard manual about the LEDs. Also see page 2-18 (2.3 Getting started for the first time) about the beeps: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/ROG_STRIX_Z390-F_GAMING/F14842_ROG_STRIX_Z390-F_GAMING_UM_V2_WEB.pdf

The MoBo ASUS ROG Strix Z390-F Gaming (LGA 1151, Intel Z390, ATX) can only accept memory DDR4-2666, DDR4-2400 or DDR4-3000. Recommendation: Corsair Vengeance RGB LED (2x, 16GB, DDR4-3000, DIMM 288)

According to the Asus specification, all of these RAM are approved: 4 x DIMM, Max. 64GB DDR4 4266(O.C.)/4133(O.C.)/4000(O.C.)/3866(O.C.)/3733(O.C.)/3600(O.C.)/3466(O.C.)/3400(O.C.)/3333(O.C.)/3300(O.C.)/3200(O.C.)/3000(O.C.)/2800(O.C.)/2666/2400/2133 MHz. Important: The memory must be Non-ECC, Un-buffered. When overclocking (O.C), set the bridge on the MB correctly. Pointed mainboard!

The mainboard alone doesn't need very much power. What about the CPU and graphics card? This one is of high quality and has enough power for most components you can install: be quiet! STRAIGHT POWER 11 (650W) How many watts you need can only be said with all components together. You can also calculate it here: https://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator (I recommend rounding up a little (50-100W) to be prepared for later upgrades).

OK, I finally found it. My old GTX980 needed a Displayport update to work properly with the mainboard. https://www.nvidia.com/object/nv-uefi-update-x64.html But I hope an Asus 2080 Ti is available soon ;)

Should be absolutely no problem with the 8th Gen. processors. As far as I know, it needed a BIOS update the other way around (i.e. for 9th gen. on z370). So I think this is a good choice. Especially since the newer chipset will surely remain forward compatible/supported for a bit longer. But I'm no expert ;)
