I've faced problems after setting up my system, especially with audio interruptions and occasional crashes during games. My PC sometimes freezes completely and needs a full reset. I noticed my RAM speed dropped from 3200 to 2333 in the BIOS, which might be linked to the overclocking. Should I attempt adjustments in the BIOS or consider replacing the motherboard? Can I still run my RAM at 3200 with a new B550 card? It's an Asrock B450m Steel Legend.

What processor are you running? It seems XMP isn't working well. Do you have RAM installed in slots 2 and 4? Consider raising the SOC voltage to 1.1 and lowering the RAM speed to 3000 or 2933 if 3200 causes issues.

You're using a Ryzen 7 3700X with two 8GB Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4-3200 CPUs in slots 2 and 4. You plan to adjust the voltage and frequency. Good luck!

Activated XMP, lowered frequency to 3133, configured SOC voltage as "Manual" at 1.1V. Avoiding unusual frequencies isn't necessary here—everything appears fine so far. Thanks!

For the machine, 3133 isn't unusual compared to 3200. We, humans, prefer numbers that are neat and divisible by 100.
