Here is the revised version at the same length and structure:

Hi All,
I wanted to share my latest PC configuration:
Motherboard: MSI B350M Bazooka mATX
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 3.8Ghz @ 1.3V
CPU cooler: Cryorig H7
RAM: G.Skill RipJaws V DDR4-3200 DIMM CL16 Dual Kit 2x8GB SKU F4-3200C16D-16GVKB
GPU: Sapphire Radeon RX580 Pulse 8GB
PSU: EVGA Supernova 650W GQ 80+ Gold
Case: Fractal Design Define C Mini Window

The issue is that I’m unable to get the RAM to operate at 3200MHz. I’ve experimented with XMP enabled and disabled, adjusting values manually. I tested various DRAM voltages from 1.3V to 1.4V and SoC voltages from 1.1V to 1.15V, but no success. I also explored higher Vcore settings, though the highest I tried was 1.37V (currently 1.3V).

Additionally, disabling Gear down mode and tweaking timing didn’t resolve the problem consistently. Boot loops occur every time I save BIOS settings (F10), with the computer restarting 3 to 5 times. Ez debug shows RAM and CPU remain idle; sometimes it runs at 3200MHz, other times it resets back to 2133MHz.

I managed stability at 3066MHz (XMP off, 1.35V DRAM, 1.1V SoC, Vcore 1.3V) but experienced two reboots today morning despite the debug session. Any suggestions or tips for achieving a stable 3200MHz RAM speed? Or to reach a consistent 3066MHz without boot loops?

Thanks in advance,
All

This recollection doesn't appear on the qualified category, meaning no assurances can be given. I'd likely aim for 2933 and be content.
