XMP profile not working

[xoxxzy]

i just got 3200mhz Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO ram for christmas and now XMP doesnt work and its running 2133Mhz even though its rated 3200Mhz. everytime i select XMP my pc will not boot and the old RAM i was using did work on XMP 3200. im not sure why this is happening

Memory controller is rated up to 2933mhz, try this frequency instead.

I used FlareX Ram about 2 hours ago and it would run easily at 3200mhz on XMP so not sure why this kit isnt working

depending on the memory ic type (ie Samsung B-die etc) the memory controller may have a harder time handling the ram. You could try bumping the SoC voltage but I would rely on someone more knowledgable about 2000 series Ryzen in regards to voltage. Maybe load up Ryzen Ram calculator just to see what sort of SoC voltages it's recomending as a guildeline

i just checked and it runs fine on 2933MHz but I obv would perfer 3200 as thats what i paid for. thanks for your help it just kinda sucks that it isnt working

I would try updating to Bios version 3.10 from your support webpage https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X570 phantom Gaming 4/index.asp#BIOS
Newer bios versions do help somewhat with ram compatibility, I didn't suggest the higher versions because I'd reserve those updates for if you decide to use a 5000 series cpu

I assume you went from 16gb to 32gb and the extra memory is too much for the memory controller to handle at 3200mhz.

Nope, not really.

Enjoy more ram at lower frequency, or go back to less ram at higher frequency.

not even a new motherboard?

Nope. The memory controller is in the processor.

so then i would have to opt for a better cpu

3000 and 5000 series support 3200mhz.
