I previously had a RAM that ran at 3600MHz (8x2 TOUGHRAM thermaltake). The new ones I’m using are 2667MHz - G.SKILL Trident Z Royal Series Gold 32GB (16GBx2) DDR4 3600MHz. I looked into the BIOS and saw the maximum I could push was 2666MHz, even though XMP was enabled. It seems there might be a limitation or something I can adjust to change the frequency. Since it’s not reaching the higher end yet, I’m not very tech-savvy and don’t know what to do next. My specs include an i5 9400f @2.9GHz and B365mPRO VH.

Your motherboard might be outdated, and the default RAM speed could be 2400MHz depending on its specifications.
