Details: Ryzen 5 3600 stock cooler, ASRock B450M Pro4 BIOS version 3.40, Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR4-3200 RAM. Default voltage and timings are set. Comes with RTX 2060 Super FE. I’m experiencing problems hitting the advertised 3.2 GHz speed. I checked XMP 2.0 and auto mode, but only stable at 3.0 GHz. Raising to 3.2 GHz causes instability—system boots but crashes intermittently. Any advice? Should I manually adjust voltage? You didn’t think it needed extra steps for 3.2 GHz? Thanks!

This version isn't the latest BIOS update yet; please adjust accordingly.

Hey friend! Updated the bios and turned on XMP at 3.2Ghz. It worked before, so now the system feels faster. Not sure if it's just the RAM speed or the overall changes from the update. Cheers!
