No, none of your RAM is operating at the claimed speeds.

Hey everyone. I'm dealing with an MSI Z390 A pro setup—i5 9600K, 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance 3200MHz CL16 RAM. My default RAM is stuck at 2133MHz. When I enable XMP, it jumps to 1.35V and 3200MHz, but Windows keeps crashing with a blue screen every time. I can get it running smoothly at 2666MHz and 1.35V. The HyperX 2666MHz RAM works fine for me, but the Corsair version always stays at 2133MHz. If I push it higher than 2133MHz, BIOS says my overclock failed after reboot. Got any advice or fixes? Thanks!

Yes, the RAM is placed in slots 2 and 4. Are you using the most recent BIOS version?

Check that each timing value aligns correctly with the XMP specifications.

No, there isn't a ram on the qvl.

They fit properly into the designated DIMM slots and I possess the most recent BIOS update.

All timing details match what Corsair claims the RAM should operate at. However, I keep experiencing an instant blue screen.

Higher memory voltage might improve performance

Vendor list verified. On the motherboard support page, there should be a section for confirmed RAM compatibility.

I raised the voltage to 1.4V and performed a Windows memory diagnostic. The test found an error and indicated a hardware problem, but only detected it in the first 6% of the scan. It's unclear what steps to take next. Those blue screens are really bothersome and might cause data loss if not addressed soon.
