Okay so after a long time I built my computer setup with a Ryzen 5 3500 processor, an RTX 2060 graphics card, a B450 motherboard from Steel Legend, and an Adata XPG Gammix D30 running at 16GB of RAM. When I started looking in the BIOS there was a memory overclock section that had an XMP profile. I know that this profile helps me reach my goal speed of 3200 mhz (right now it's set to 2666 mhz). But there is another option called Infinity Fabric Frequency and Dividers which can be manually changed all the way up to 3000 mhz. Do you guys have any idea what that thing is? When I'm trying to make my RAM run at 3200 mhz, should I change this setting? I am not trying to overheat or crash the CPU yet. Considering these things, do I need to change anything else in the profile? Thanks a ton!

Yeah, A2 and B2 are the main doors, while A1 and B1 are the side ones. You only hit those if you need four sticks of RAM. Because the Infinity fabric makes them run slower than a normal 4-stick setup, which is why you'd pick A2 as your best choice. It's like that main USB port on a computer back panel. There are some really fast red slots for high speed, standard blue ones for regular speeds, and black ones too. For external storage, use the red slot instead of the black one; if you do that, you'll get done with uploads or downloads much faster. High-speed RAM needs those red A2-B2 slots. The A1-B1 slots would be the black ones.
