  1. CPU z reports the ram speed changes correctly. Xmp is unavalible, so the most I can do is up the frequency to 3200. thanks for the help.
  2. I just upped the ram speed in bios. Task manager & bios report 3200 mhz, but benchmarks hit 2400mhz maximum. I don’t know if this is normal though.
  3. The previous motherboard, specially an msi b360m mortar, was from a cyber power prebuilt that only supported up to 2666mhz. The ram sticks them selves can’t hit anything above 2666mhz, as that is what they were advertised at. I transferred over the storage & ram from my previous build to the new one, as I didn’t think that the ram would have made much of a difference. Here is the specific information page from gskill for the ram if you need more information: https://www.gskill.com/product/165/184/1536032671/F4-2666C19D-16GVR
  4. Dram speed gaming performance Last year I upgraded & transferred parts over from from my old pc to a new build. My ram that I have is a 2x8gb 2666mhz that I had In my previous build. I wanted to know if upgrading to faster ram speeds would be a significant change in fps/preformance. I also do some music production as well.

  5. I was looking at upgrading to rocket lake in the near future anyways, so I’ll probably Use my predicament to upgrade around Christmas time.
  6. I just checked warranty, and the computer isn’t covered anymore (warranty is only 3 yrs). I also won’t be able to warranty specific parts as this is a prebuilt. Ill Need to buy new, or used parts. Thanks for the help anyways
  7. I just tried installing the suggested bios speaker, but I get no sound from it. I checked the diagram in the manual, and the speaker is installed correctly. Any help as to what is causing this would be greatly appreciated. I know it's been a few weeks since I updated this thread, so I might make this it's own post if I don't get anything back within a few days.
  8. Ok, I will do that, I’ll update you with the beep codes when I get the speaker installed
  9. You might be correct on the cpu, the debug led for cpu flashes before the dram led turns solid. I haven’t been able to check for error beeps because, from what I can tell, the case doesn’t have a speaker.
  10. So far I have tried everything suggested so far, and I haven't been able to fix the issue. If I do need to replace the motherboard because of a bad ram slot what would be a good suggested replacement board? I'm willing to spend up to $120
  11. I will do this tomorrow when I can get access to the computer. I also have to find a way to get the cmos battery from behind the front panel fans. It fell behind there when I was trying to get the cmos battery out for the second time, I also resated the processor twice already
  12. I have done this multiple times already, but I just did that again with the same issue happening after I cleared the cmos.
  13. A week ago I stupidly thought that it would be a good idea to mess with voltages on my ram. This has Since bricked the computer and shows the dram debug led when powered on (photos below). I originally thought it was just the ram that got fried, so I bought a new kit but I still get the same issue with the new set. The only things that I can think of as to why the new ram produces the same issues is that the new ram is faulty, or the ram slots got fried. If I have to replace the motherboard. Photos, part list, and qvl lists avalible below. Any help would be greatly appreciated. *THIS THREAD IS ALSO ON r/pcmasterrace so I WILL MARK THIS AS SOLVED IF I GET AN ANSWER FROM THERE* [Parts list](https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Crazygamerfreak/saved/#view=NXVkJx) (pc is a prebuilt from cyberpowerpc but these are the same parts including upgrades I made) QVL page for ram and Motherboard: [Motherboard](https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B360M-BAZOOKA#support-mem-3) [Ram](https://www.gskill.com/qvl/165/184/1536032671/F4-2666C19D-16GVR-Qvl) top photo is old ram, bottom is new set
