Problems with RAM.

I'm having a problem with my ram running at full speed without my computer going into a boot loop. I have 4 sticks of 3200MHz at CL-16 but after it goes into a boot loop it changes it to 2400MHz. I was able to get it to 2666MHz. Is this due to the motherboard or something else entirely. System specs: Ryzen 5 1600af, ASUS B450-f gaming motherboard, 4 sticks of delta t-force 3200MHz ram, GTX 980TI, and EVGA 1000 W 80+ gold. Can someone please help?

Early Ryzen Chips had weak IMCs in them and hated 4 sticks of RAM.. this is likely your problem. You can try enabling XMP and then turn up the SOC voltages in the BIOS as well. You're safe to go up to 1.2v 24/7 on the SOC.

I’m using the xmp profile but it’s called something else on the board. The default voltage is 1.35. Should I try a new cpu?

DOCP is what its caused on ASUS boards. Increase your SOC Voltage to 1.15v and see. If that doesnt work, try with just 2 sticks.

I tried it and I already knew it would work with just two sticks but it started the boot loop again at that voltage. I was thinking of upgrading to a ryzen 7 2700x. Would this cpu work out better than the 1600af with this ram?
