Set XMP and then drop the frequency one step.

GA-AX370-Gaming 5

Ryzen 7 1800x

16gb G.skill 3200Mhz

 

The ram I am using on the list of working ram for my motherboard, but I cannot get my ram to perform at 3200MHz without my computer being very unstable, games crashing, and the entire computer crashing. Everytime I enable XMP this happens. What do I need to change in my bios to allow my ram to function at 3200MHz while still remaining stable?

 

My mobo bios is also updated so the problem is not there.

You could raise the voltage, but remember that ryzen has memory issues. So you could just lower the speed to 3000mhz as the performance increase from 3000 to 3200 is minimal.

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Double check to make sure you've placed your ram in the correct slots. It does seem to matter. If you're 16GB kit consists of two 8GB dimms, they should be in board slots DDR4_1 and DDR4_2. Make sure, it's a common mistake. Your bios also has a VCORE SOC option that should be set to 1.1v. You can increase that for potential stabilty. No higher than 1.2v. As already mentioned, you can also try increasing DRAM Voltage. With XMP enabled, it's probably already at 1.35v. Try increasing it to 1.36 or 1.37. No higher than 1.40v. Without knowing the exact model number of your kit, that's the easiest suggestions I can give. It's also possible to just drop the frequency to 2933.

My computer crashed almost instantly after I started the aida64 test on my ram with these applied.

This seems to be the best option. My computer has seemed to been stable and has not crashed after testing it on aida64 and gaming, although I wish i could get the max performance out of my ram.

AGESA 1007 is coming soon, but 3066mhz vs 3200mhz is nothing
