3200MHz ram runs at 2133MHz

[RandomKidd]

I've tried XMP-A, manually setting the speed, coltage and timings to what the manufacturer states on their website and it still doesn't wanna boot...please help!

RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V 2x8GB 3200MHz CL14

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600

MB: MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max

Set XMP and be sure voltage is 1.35v memory.

 

Manually set frequency to 2666mhz and see if it boots up.

If it boots up, restart, increase memory frequency to 2733mhz. See if it boots up.

Incrementally increase the memory speed until you reach your maximum stable clock.

Wash rinse repeat.

You shouldn't have to set those settings yourself. First make sure that there's no BIOS update released. If so, just update your BIOS, reset everything and see if it works when enabling XMP. If the issue persists, go to your motherboard manufacturer website and see if the RAM sticks you have are listed as compatible. If they're not, then you should return them in exchange for a kit that's officially supported.
