I'm a bit confused about this. Are you thinking your motherboard is a mix of ASUS and MSI parts? Normally, if XMP isn't working, you might want to try turning on DOCP so the XMP settings can be properly converted for AMD's CPU and chipset. Read more for details. What do XMP, DOCP, EOCP mean? Forums. If you've already tried DOCP and it didn't help, another option is to manually adjust the speed and timings on the RAM sticks, following the information on the stickers.
hello, i used memory try it and it didn't work. when i set it to 2933 it saved in the bios, but when i opened windows and checked task manager it only showed 1467 mhz. i was thinking of entering the selected times on the stick with 3000 mhz, 15-17-17-35/1.35v, but those times only had 4 slots while the input area had 5.
Some chipset, motherboard, CPU, and RAM setups won't reach exactly 3000MHz. When XMP is enabled for that frequency, it automatically reduces it to 2933MHz. This isn't an error on your part; your gear is functioning correctly. The issue lies in the internal frequencies and their multipliers, which don't sum up to 3000 but instead settle at 2933.
LOL. The main problem was they thought the speeds in Task Manager were half what they expected, but I clarified it's due to DDR technology, which means double data rate. Just multiplying that number gave the actual RAM speed. It turned out it was actually running at 2934 normally.
