Asus Prime B450-Plus Memory Timing issues

[NobodyTwitch]

Build:

Ryzen 2400G

ASUS Prime B450-plus

16GB (8GBx2) Trident Z 3200 CL-16

XPG 480GB NVMe SSD

Samsung 860 Evo 1TB 2.5" SSD

 

This setup was working with a Gigabyte GA-AB350 Gaming 3 before the previous power supply gave up and too the mobo with it. Decided, for the money, a B450 board should give better performance. Since rebuilding the system, it won't boot with XMP, and will only boot at 3200 with stupid loose timings (CL-26 or 29, can't quite remember).

 

I have done some reading, and I'm not the only one who has experienced poor memory support with this board. So, what's my likelihood of a bad board vs a damaged CPU/Ram?

 

Thanks in advance,

Which RAM slots did you install the RAM into?  Should be A2 and B2.

Thank you. I have never built with an Asus mobo before, and apparently it shows. I had them in A1 and B1. It boots and runs just fine at 3200 CL-16 now. Thank you very much for the assistance.
