Ciao, and welcome to the forum!

Have you tried updating your motherboard's BIOS?

[eatingaerailshoppingcenter]

Is this a fresh windows install?

It's not the bios.

 

The Cpu memory controller is only rated to 2933mhz.

Set XMP, but manually lower the Dram freq. to 2933mhz.

Be sure to set memory voltage to XMP manually.

You can also disable "power down mode" located in the memory sub timings menu.

If the memory is an odd number Cas latency, you can also disable "gear down mode".

 

Let me know if this works for you.

It's ok. What power down mode does is prevent the memory from throttling when in an idle state. Can help with stability when needed. So you don't "have' to worry about it at this time. Just see if it will post up at 2933mhz. Test the stability and we can go form there.

There you go. Use it and abuse it for a while. If it's stable, this is good performance uplift from 2133mhz. Some 800mhz increase?? Yeah, you should be good to go.
