hey everyone, I'm trying to get my memory to perform at what i paid for (3200mhz) haven't been able to get it past 3000mhz. Was wondering if it's motherboard support or perhaps the use of 4 memory sticks. Anyone who may have a guide to fix this would be great. 

p.s. I haven't played around with the timings, i've tried setting the mem speed and fabric to 3200mhz/1600mhz, i've played with the dram volts from 1.3-1.4v and a few in between, always gets a no post and i have to revert back, only thing i can get to post so far is 3000mhz/1500mhz.  current timings are at 16.18.18.18.36

 

Also, wondering if there's any performance to be gained from attempting to OC the cpu, gave it a quick try at 4200mhz @ 1.35v, it didn't like that very much, perhaps if anyone has a rough guide or video showing what values they set their 3700 at so i kinda have a rough idea of where to start.

 

I've been looking for guides and such, haven't been able to find anything that really helps, i've been out of the OC hobby since the P4 2.8 days (like 16 years), so i'm pretty new to the modern stuff.

 

R7 3700x

Msi x570 gamer plus

corsair lpx vengeance 16gbx4 3200mhz (can only get it to 3000mhz)

corsair h60 cooler

corsair rm750x psu

corsair crystal 570x

3x corsair sp120 intake fans, 3x corsair sp120 exhaust fans (only 2 plugged in, haven't gotten the commander yet)

cpu temps in the 40C idle/65ishC gaming,

That is more pressure on the imc and the interconnect 

If you want to try to get to 3200

Update the bios and set the soc to 1.1 you might be able to get to 3000 but 3200 might be a stretch
