The mobo sets it to 2400 and 1.2v by default. It's designed to run at 3000 and 1.35v but if I set it to that it wouldn't run at all. You can't customize the voltage though so it's either 3000 at 1.35v or anything under at 1.2v. I ordered some new Ram as I believe this is my main issue.
After re-seating the GPU I haven't seen any artifacting at all. But I do have another system to swap it in to / a GTX 970 to swap in if it continues. Thanks!!
I installed 2 sticks of 4GB DDR 2400 CL16 ram in place of the new stuff I bought and the system seems stable enough. Im gonna do a stress test overnight and see how it goes. No speckling or reboots for hours, hopefully it was just the ram.
I reseated the CPU and re-pasted last night as well as the GPU. However now the PC is randomly locking up. Under stress or just idling. However I haven't tried re-seating the ram or mobo power plugs yet so I will give that a go tonight. And if problems persist I will go for a RAM swap. I...

Also, i have an m.2 boot drive that is always recognized in BIOS...
