Can't hit 3600mhz RAM speed on Ryzen

Go to solution Solved by GMW,

Well looked closer to how I had it configured, due to how my water lines run I have a hard to getting to my RAM slots. I'm ashamed to admit they were in wrong slots. Moved over and works perfect. Thanks everyone for the ideas. I would never of looked at slot had someone not suggested. 

Specs:

Asus ROG Crosshair VII Hero (x470)

Ryzen 9 3900x

G.SKILL Trident Z Neo (For AMD Ryzen) 32GB 3600mhz

https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-32gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232861?Description=gskill neo&cm_re=gskill_neo-_-20-232-861-_-Product

I can apply the the DOCP and get the timings right but anything over 3200mhz i cant post. I've made sure I have latest BIOS installed. My RAM kit is on the 3000 series compatibility chart. I've tried to adjust voltages and timing manually and just can't seem to get it to boot at 3600mhz. My theory is that because it is an x470 chipset that im just waiting for the right BIOS update. Any ideas?

If you check the above link, you'll notice the motherboard support up to 3466MHz RAM. You can try to set your RAM to run at that frequency and see if it boots.

I apologies if my comments or post offends you in any way, or if my rage got a little too far. I'll try my best to make my post as non-offensive as much as possible.

Gigabyte Aorus X470 Gaming 5 can support RAM up to 16GB with frequency of up to 3600MHz per stick.

Thats likely specification for unsupported ram or something unrelated to their problem, like they said the ram is supported, albeit only for 2 dimm slots, on manufacturers QVL https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/ROG_CROSSHAIR-VII-HERO/ROG_Crosshair_VII_Series_Ryzen_3000-series_Memory_QVL.pdf

OP seems to know what they are doing, so i doubt they put them in the wrong dimm slots etc (usual b2 and a2 location ofc)

Yeah they are in right slots. And yeah tried running higher the 3200mhz. No boot no matter what. Tried volt changes from early post. No change
