I have a configuration problem with this motherboard, I would like to install 32GB of DDR4-2400 HyperX Fury RAM, when I insert 16GB (2 bars) the PC boots and no problem but as soon as I put more than 16GB, I have a black screen, not even a boot on the BIOS, I went to modify the XMP profiles to choose the one for DDR4-2400 RAM but it changes nothing, I tried the XMP option "ON" but it is not working.I have been to change the XMP profiles to choose the one for DDR4-2400 RAM but it doesn't change anything, I tried the XMP "ON" option proposed in the BIOS but nothing either. I don't know what to do, I searched the forums but no info, has anyone had the problem?

I finally found the answer to my own question, I had to update the BIOS to the latest version (7A68v17), now the 32GB of DDR4-2400 RAM is well recognized!

I don't know why this is of interest, but MBs usually consume very little power (10-25W). According to the data sheet, the Intel Z270 has a TDP of 6W + a few other components, so I would estimate 10-15W. I don't think you can really check this anywhere.
