New motherboard won't boot after enabling XMP

So I just built a new computer and tried overclocking the ram as it had 3000Mhz as advertised speed and I wasn't satisfied with the default of 2400MHz. So I enabled the profile and my pc couldn't boot, it tried a few times before it posted to a safe mode. Then I tried lowering the speed to 2933Mhz, didn't work either, then 2800Mhz, still didn't work, so I just kept it at 2666Mhz which did work, but I'm not satisfied at all. I tried manually adjusting the voltage to 1.4 which didn't even work for 2800Mhz, obviously there's something wrong, but what?

 

CPU: 3200G

MB: Asus TUF B450M Gaming Plus (BIOS ver: 1804, not the latest, but not the oldest)

RAM: Team Group Delta RGB 2x4Gb 3000Mhz

Honestly, the issue is probably the CPU. The 3200G is actually a Zen+ part, not a Zen 2 part. I guess you lucked out on the silicon lottery.

 

Yoiu should still try updating the BIOS to the latest version anyway, it can't hurt and might be the cause.

Main Rig:-

Ryzen 7 3800X | Asus ROG Strix X570-F Gaming | 16GB Team Group Dark Pro 3600Mhz | Corsair MP600 1TB PCIe Gen 4 | Sapphire 5700 XT Pulse | Corsair H115i Platinum | WD Black 1TB | WD Green 4TB | EVGA SuperNOVA G3 650W | Asus TUF GT501 | Samsung C27HG70 1440p 144hz HDR FreeSync 2 | Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS |

 

Server:-

Intel NUC running Server 2019 + Synology DSM218+ with 2 x 4TB Toshiba NAS Ready HDDs (RAID0)

I had a post about this. but here is the post quick and explained.

 

Open ryzen master.

put the ram and fabrick clokc to 1500mhz leave timing auto, reboot.

Then in ryzen master put your cas latency and cas write latency to 16, reboot again. 

Tehn put your read roc column daley adn row precharge dalay to 18.

Then put your ras active time to 38 and your row cycle time to 58, reboot and test memory

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

At which step do I put the 3000Mhz?
