Hi everyone, 

 

I'm having an issue with my new system where Windows immediately crashes to a blue screen when I have XMP enabled and set the DRAM frequency to 3200MHz. If I have just XMP on, the BIOS says that the RAM is 2133MHz. I've had the computer work once before while setting the RAM frequency to just 3200MHz, but I'm not comfortable leaving it there without tweaking the timings, which I'm not very familiar with and crashed the computer last time I tried it. 

 

Anyone have an idea of what might be going on?

 

Specs

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600

Mobo: ASRock X570 Pro4

Ram: Corsair Vengance LPX DDR4 3200MHz 2x8GB

GPU: Nvidia GeForce 1080

Power: Corsair CX650M

Try updating bios, but it could be that you got a bad memory module. 

 

Don't jump the latter that quickly, though.

 

Which slots are your memory modules installed in?
