Does the EVGA X99 FTW K support the Corsair 64 RGB RAM DDR4? Or do you plan to create a BIOS to support it?

    My EVGA X99 Classified works just fine with CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 64GB (8 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2800 (PC4 22400) Desktop Memory Model CMK64GX4M8B2800C14 - and with the FTW K being a newer board, I'm sure that it supports it as well.

    As of now. I am having BSOD and rebooting issues since I upgrade the RAM. It locks up on the BIOS.

    Try setting defaults with a CMOS clear. Does it lock up then? If it does lock up, try a single stick of RAM at a time (you might have 1 bad stick, and this can help determine that).
     
    Edit: and if clearing the CMOS to set everything to default keeps the computer from BSODing and restarting, then it may be an issue with the XMP profile - a work around for that is to manually set the RAM timings, speed, and voltage yourself. The numbers can be found on the box that the RAM came in, and also on the sticker on each stick of RAM.
     
    Also remember, if the BCLK is set to something other than 100, as some XMP profiles and RAM speeds will set it to 125, the CPU might not have a strong enough Integrated Memory Controller to handle it, and you may have to lower the RAM speed a bit to a frequency that allows for a 100 BCLK (typically 2133, 2400, 2666, and 3200 on the 5000 series Intel CPUs, the 6000 series might be slightly different).

    I had to switch to the BIOS2 since the problem was BIOS1 was having booting, BSOD, and BIOS lockup issues.

    Glad you got it resolved. You can re-flash the bad BIOS from within Windows. Boot into Windows, then switch the BIOS over to BIOS 1, then run the latest BIOS update. Hopefully that will fix any issue that BIOS 1 had.

    working
     
    I always set RAM voltage manually

    Mine? Officially 1.35V, but since I run it at 3200MHz, and not the stock 2800MHz, I do add a bit and run it at 1.38V.

    Start with the Mfg recommended voltage for best stock speed stability
