Does removing a ram stick cuases the mobo to reset the OC settings?

[Aljouf]

so i have a system with overclocked GPU and CPU and Ram.
does removing one of the ram stick (i have 4 of them) could cause the MOBO to reset the overclock's settings?
because i've noticed the system start to act weird (booting twice-three times) but then it booted to windows just fine!

If by booting weird you mean during post it could be detecting unstable settings and resetting RAM timings/clock for the system to boot stable. So to answer your question for your case most likely.

thank you for replying.
i wont be in my home for a quite a while so i cant check but can these settings be saved on a profile (i have a pre-built pc overclocked from origin) ?

and last thing does BIOS resetting effects the GPU as well?

They probably have a profile on there but it won't matter if the removed stick is causing instability.

No GPU OCing is done with software in Windows.

2 questions, what are the specs of the machine and why are you removing the stick of RAM to begin with?

i had a problem with the old system it started giving me blue screen and freezing so i suspected it was a ram problem so i had to take the ram from my new system without realizing it could reset the OC's settings!


thanks for the help i appreciate it .

Changing the hardware might also cause losing a key for windows(You need to activatr the windows)

i didnt know swapping or removing hardware can be that complicated.
thanks for the input.

That's only for major hardware changes, such as CPU/motherboard.
