That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

Windows explorer taking almost all RAM

This worked temporary for me. After a system restart, it was taking lots of RAM like before.

Had to do the steps again

I had the same problem on Windows 10 with 8GB RAM, and restarting Explorer didn't work for me. The following may work:

• Open Task Manager
  
• On the Details tab, find explorer.exe
  
• Right-click on it and choose End process tree
  
• Confirm End process tree
  

Some windows might close; the task bar also disappears.

• Now in Task Manager's File menu, click on Run new task.
  
• Type explorer.exe in the bar. Click OK.
