It was Hynix C-tier ICs with an XMP set at 4000 M/T, C18. It was subpar binning, tbh, but I don't entirely blame the QVL checkers. It appeared stable on first glance, and it passed most tests (e.g. TM5, OCCT), but it failed every time on prime95 around 15min in.
It's fine, though. I ended up learning lots about my RAM, and now I've got it stable at 3666 C16.
I just like to point out that the QVL isn't a guarantee of quality, and it's not the final word on what will work, especially since those lists can sometimes be sparse.
