Your concerns aren't valid at all. Not everyone needs to have the tightest timings possible. His board is bad, so is his memory and he was happy to just reach his desired frequency. So there's no need to go manual here. There will not be any perceivable benefit to the marginally better timings we could get on his modules. Do you get it or do you still want to go full OC on the guy? Leave it alone, man. The problem is solved.

Nothing. Just like the JEDEC standard has nothing to do with his RAM situation. You're just posting to argue.

That's because my memory does not run lower than 2666.

That does not matter. There are many different types of memory modules and motherboards will never run them at JEDEC timings.

Depends on what's in your cart right now.

Who cares about any of it? I will always buy what's best for the specific amount of $ that I want to spend, regardless of brand. For 10 years, the best was always Intel. Now it's AMD and it will continue to be AMD for the foreseeable future. Am I shedding a tear for Intel? No, I'm not. Just like I didn't cry at all for Bulldozer , Vishera or Opteron. It is "ME" who matters, not some tech company.

The modules probably run stock at something ridiculous like 2133 CL21. Can't be much worse than that.

Awww that's hot. That's hot. Should have gone with Ryzen which cools down your room instead of getting warm.

Glad I could help. Hope it's stable during daily use.

That's not how bottlenecks work. The issue here is that the graphics card is much too weak to be paired with this CPU. The only way to "fix" this is by purchasing a much more powerful card.

You do not want 64 dB in your room. That's 4 times louder than some of the loudest graphics cards on the market. Even if you do manage to turn it down a notch via PWM, the fan will spin at max RPM for a second each time you turn on your PC.

Do not use DOCP then. It's similar to XMP. (it almost never works) Set the frequency to 3200mhz, set the DRAM voltage to 1,35V and leave everything else on auto.

Vega 64 will draw almost 400W when overclocked. Your PSU might even have some trouble powering it @ stock. Get the RTX 2060 or upgrade your PSU as well.

$80 is a very good price.
