Question

Why does my PC crash in hybrid mode with XMP activated?

---

Answer

When XMP is switched on, crashes may occur in combination with the hybrid mode of the Seasonic power supply unit.
⚠️The power supply unit must be switched off before the fan control is changed.⚠️
If the power supply unit has a fan control switch, set this to Normal mode. The fan does not rotate in hybrid or fanless mode (S³FC).

Explanation of the button settings

Switch position to Normal (two-stage mode):

• In this position, the S²FC mode is activated. The speed of the fan is limited up to a power draw of 50 per cent (500 watts) so that the fan produces a maximum sound pressure of 16 dB(A). With increasing power consumption, the speed increases slightly without becoming loud.

Switch position to hybrid (three-stage mode):

• In this position, the S³FC mode is activated. The fan does not rotate up to a power draw of 30 per cent (300 watts). At a power demand between 31 and 50 per cent (301 to 500 watts), the fan speed is limited so that it generates a maximum sound pressure level of 16 dB(A). From a power request of 501 watts, the speed increases slightly without becoming loud.
