That memory kit has worked on other boards and is proven here for this specific motherboard. You can run it at the advertised speed. Just update the BIOS and test again. Make sure you installed the sticks in slots A2 and B2, which are the second and fourth slots from your CPU. The slot closest to the edge of the board is slot 4. Also, save your settings before leaving the BIOS, and try using Advanced or Expert mode instead of E-Z or basic mode when making changes.

i updated my bios but was a little scared because ASRock said not to do it if you have Pinnacle, Raven or Summit Ridge CPU on your system. i am using P haha but i did it anyway and it worked perfectly then i tried to make my ram faster with the XMP profile and finally at the bios it showed 3200 speed so I had a WoooHooo moment so after that i went into task manager and in the memory section, it says speed is 3200MHZ. i think everything is working and my ram was successfully overclocked too. thanks to everyone for helping me
