I just began a fresh build and initially installed 3000mhz Corsair RAM from my previous machine. Recently, I upgraded to 3600mhz G.Skill Trident-Z Royal, and according to what I've noticed, it performs well for its price. After moving to the 5950X, I encountered several problems when trying to overclock the RAM. Anyone have experienced similar issues? The system runs smoothly at 3000mhz but won't boot up at higher speeds. I set the DOCP to 3600 and left it auto since I'm not very familiar with this CPU—Ryzen 9 5950X. I also tried Dominator 4000mhz RAM, but that was due to compatibility concerns with the motherboard, so I returned it.

Current best practices. I'm working with 4x8 sticks.

Update checked the manual setup on g.skill for CPU and motherboard. Everything appears to function properly. Hope it works!

I considered using just two sticks instead of four.
