3600 MHz running at 2133

[declined_]

Hi guys,

 

I'm running

Windows 10 64bit

Ryzen 5 5600x

32GB G.Skill DDR4 PC 3600 CL16 KIT (2x16GB) 32GVKC Ripjaws

TUF GAMING B550-PLUS

RTX 3070

 

My problem is:

I checked RAM Speed in Task Manager and it says 2133 MHz.

 

That must be obviously wrong so I head into the BIOS to see if DOCP is enabled. It is. Apparently.

 

 

 

But at the same time the BIOS also says

 

 

Now, that is weird, right?

But when I decided to exit, my PC starts to boot 2-3 times and goes into safe mode until I turn off DOCP.

 

Has anyone a suggestion how to fix this? I want my full speed, lol

That means the memory overclock (what DOCP is doing) is not stable. You could try manually setting it to 3600Mhz and adjusting the timings, or you can try a lower frequency such as 3200MHz. Are there any other DOCP profiles you can choose from?

No sir, it has "Profile 1" and "Disabled" as its only options.

Try to lower the frequency of the memory to something like 3200MHz, then reboot and see if it is stable. If it is, increase the frequency until it is unstable, then back it up a bit. Alternatively, you can set the frequency to 3600MHz and manually set the timings and voltages.

Recheck WHICH SLOTS you SHOULD be using (Motherboard Manual)
Some boards for whatever reason... can prefer different DIMM config's that work over others..
eG Slot 1/2/3/4 and the board MIGHT want 1&3, 1&2 or 2&4 to be used and actually get the speeds advertised.

I will check that!

I have never done this. How do I go about doing this?

Yup. This was the reason. I had the sticks in A1/B1. Put them in A2/B2, turned on DOCP and it works.

 

Thank you, Sir!

And of course thanks to @The_russian and @Spotty aswell!
