i just built a new pc well a few weeks ago gigabyte aorus elite ax v2 ,ryzen 7 7800x3d, hellhound 7900xt, and finally where i believe the issue lies trident z5 rgb 6400 cl32. so everything has worked fine for weeks well i got a windows update yesterday so i done the update and upon restarting my pc blacked screened for a solid 5 minutes finally showing me a failure to boot something along the lines of components may not be compatible it gave me the option to set everything to default and boot which i done i then restarted my pc and enabled xmp which sent me right back to the failure to boot so basically where im at right now ive done a memory diagnostic test and everything comes back fine with no issues im kind of lost on what i should do next i was going to do a bios update but havent got around to it yet any help is much appreciated

Ryzen struggles with high ram speeds, you need to do some fine tuning to get 6400 to work or you can just do xmp enabled + 6000mhz override.

6400 cl32 is gonna be rough. 6000 is what AMD recommends as best performance. You may be able to do 6000 cl32 and have it boot. The 400 mhz difference isn't gonna make a difference unless you are running cloud servers, processing HUGE datasets, or doing high frequency stock trading. At best you'd see a few fps difference, and it would be the difference of say 278 vs 265 at most.
