Ryzen 7 3700x & 3600mhz ram

I have a ryzen 7 3700x and 4x8GBS of 3600mhz corsair vengance pro ram. When I turn on XMP any game I play tends to crash. Is this because r7 3700x can only support up to 3200mhz?

 

Specs: 

Ryzen 7 3700x, Aurous x570 elite, Corsair vengance pro 3600mhz (4x8GBS), EVGA Black 2070 Super, Coolermaster 750W 80+ Bronze

No.  At least in theory a 3700 has a limit much higher than that.  Above a certain memory speed it can be actually slower though.  The implication is that your memory may not actually be as fast as it thinks it is. There is memory speed and there is CAS. Both can matter.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

That memory model of Corsair has that XMP issue. It's not related with your CPU, that model's XMP profiles are broken. Just manually set frequency, voltage and latency.

 

NOTE: I meant the LPX model has that, naming made me mess it up.

Still manually set them to XMP values, set FCLK to 1800 and give it a try.

so in bios I would change FCLK to 1800 and change system memory multiplier to 3600 and voltage to 1.35? or just change FCLK

Yes if you mean memory frequency as memory multiplier, but include XMP latencies too. If XMP profile shows 4 latencies and BIOS shows 5, 3 and 4 are the same numbers.

in bios it says XMP subtimings are 18-22-22-42-64. Which one is which?

First 5 shall be these. It primarily asks for 5 values.

in my bios tRP and tRAS dont go as high as the numbers i stated. im guessing the first number isnt CAS latency what should it be then and whats the last number for?

Command rate needs to be 1 I think. Can you send a screenshot from BIOS?

Starting from CAS latency, the first 5. If you can't type values there, disable XMP and then try again.

ok do I leave CAS latency on auto?

No, set it to a manual value, you actually need to start from it. If it's 16-18-20-20-36 for example CAS latency is 16.

ok but mine is 18-22-22-42-64. And if im starting from CAS latency i cant change tRP and tRAS to those last 2 numbers

So does it just not allow to type these?

Wait wha...
Never seen it like that before. Isn't there just a manual option?

I have no idea then, never seen a such BIOS before (I know, Gigabyte is popular but I've never used one of their boards).
