Can't overclock my RAM
Can't overclock my RAM
Hello. I recently purchased a GSKILL 16GB (2x8GB) RipjawsV DDR4 3200Mhz CL16 1.35V Dual Kit RAM. It functions at 2133Mhz now. I attempted to increase the clock speed to 3200Mhz but the system wouldn't boot. After that, I tried enabling A-XMP mode via MSI Bios, but it still didn't work and required a BIOS reset to start. Could you help me get it to run at 3200Mhz?
My system details: MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon, Xigmatek Vector 750W 80 Plus Silver, AMD Ryzen7 1700X, Cooler Master MasterLiquid 240 Liquid Cooler, Zotac GTX1080, GSKILL 16GB RipjawsV DDR4 3200MHz.
Since the board is quite new, you'll encounter fresh BIOS updates that enhance compatibility and stability.
Recommendations include:
- update to the latest BIOS
- ensure RAM sticks are placed in the correct slots (typically 2 and 4)
- try with looser timings than the XMP profile
- experiment with a slightly higher voltage
- reach out to MSI to report the issue or remain patient for upcoming BIOS releases

Thanks for your answer. My bios was the latest version. I solved it with changing values like 2933Mhz and 1.30V. Its enough for me.
