Recently, after a blue screen on my PC, the DRAM frequency dropped from 3200MHz to 2133MHz. I adjusted the BIOS settings and saved them, but the computer kept rebooting repeatedly with the CPU light blinking on the motherboard until I powered it off. After a short pause, I pressed the power button again and it started working normally at 2133MHz. Prior to the blue screen, the system had been stable at 3200MHz for about five to six months without issues. I attempted a BIOS update and changed the DRAM placement, but the problem persisted. The hardware specs are: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 MSI B450 A-Pro Gigabyte RX Gaming 8G G.Skill RipjawsV 16GB DDR4-3200MHz (2x8GB) Seasonic M12ii Evo 520W.

Yes, it functions properly when XMP is activated.

I also tested both profiles.

No, I didn't reset the CMOS.

I didn't think it would make a difference.

Ensures stability by confirming no recent changes. Have you tested Memtest for memory issues? Verify that your voltage readings—12V, 5V, and 3.3V—are all within acceptable ranges using tools like HWiNFO or HWMonitor. Also, check how long you've had your power supply; while it’s not the main concern, it’s worth reviewing.
