I recently upgraded to a Ryzen 1700X (full details of new components available here: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NjhRD8). The CPU is performing well, but the RAM isn’t reaching speeds beyond the default 2133 MHz, let alone its rated 3200 MHz.

Despite my efforts, it consistently fails to POST at any speed above the default. When I try higher speeds manually, the system sometimes works briefly before reverting to defaults and requiring me to adjust BIOS settings. Using D.O.C.P. keeps it trying indefinitely until I power it off and use the clear-RCT jumper.

Any suggestions?

Update the MotherBoard BIOS, PD, and RAM are cool and expensive, but one is better. However, DAMMM 390$ RAMs are a big deal! Men, the G.Skill Trident Z is about 20$ cheaper and has less CAS. But what has been done is complete. Find your motherboard BIOS here: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/PRI...Desk_BIOS/ (select Last release). But before that, try changing the RAM positions.
