Hey Xenonphon61, I have ordered an H97M-PLUS since I've been having this exact same problem as well for ages now. As you said, very puzzling that the topics are so rare on this problem.
Anyhow, to complete the build can you say what RAM (brand/model) you are using in combination with this board? Thx!
I am using Ballistix Tactical Low Profile 32GB Kit 8GBx4 DDR3-1600 and have not had any issues. I also got the same motherboard. I don't think it's really going to matter which RAM you get as long as it's 1600 MHz or less. H97M-Plus will only use 1600 MHz max. So even if you put a DDR3 1866 MHz RAM, it will still utilize only 1600 MHz. So there's no point in getting higher frequency RAM.
