Question about Corsair Vengeance LPX 2400MHz
I have a build with:
R5 5600x
MSI tomwark max 2 b450
2x8GB Corsair Vengeance 2400 ram
PSU Paris from 650w
Deepcool aio captain 240 rgb heatsink
Would you like to know if it's feasible or how to boost the piston speed by tweaking voltage and phase?
Piston speed ?? Is it for a 2 or 4 stroke engine, perhaps diesel? Just joking, couldn't help it, an old engine tuner here.
The outcome of memory OC (over XMP) varies greatly depending on the situation, so extensive experimentation is necessary.
In terms of voltage, DDR4 performs well up to 1.5-1.6v, while some standard voltages are 1.2v below 3000MHz and 1.35v for higher speeds.
The 5000 series Ryzen IMC works up to 4000MHz, but your motherboard and BIOS might not support it as effectively.
First, set the voltage to at least 1.35v and increase the frequency by one step, then perform a stress test. Proceed from there.

along with benchmark tests. There are numerous additional settings beyond just MHz and Voltage.

3.20 corresponds to Micron 4Gbit rev A, which indicates your RAM might be using a 2Rx8 (or dual rank) setup in each stick. Search online for their settings and see what works on your system. For stability, apply TM5 with the Absolut configuration: open the app, click 'load settings', select 'absolut.cfg', it will close the app automatically, disable all startup programs, restart, then run TM5 as an administrator, and wait for it to complete three cycles. If no errors appear, your RAM is stable—especially if you didn’t notice any noises while the GPU was under stress. A typical test involves using TM5 with that configuration while running Furmark to mimic maximum load, ensuring stability even in the worst-case scenario. Memtest isn't recommended for detecting errors during overclocking, as per forum discussions and Reddit threads, so it's best avoided. You might find more guidance on ram overclocking here.
5600X usually can't exceed 3866 MHz, but with a good BIOS, you could reach 3933/66 or even 4000 if the setup is optimal. Since the I/O die matches that of the Ryzen 3000 series CPU, the maximum limit remains similar. Good luck, and enjoy the results!
I will try with that software (I was not aware of it)
While for oc there is no computer because my fear is to tamper with some important parameter or to find that non-optimized stability.
I also did an oc for the cpu and I have the same fear
Ram is categorized accordingly.
If Ram can consistently run at speeds exceeding 2400, it will be offered as premium faster RAM for a higher price. You might have a chance, but don’t rely on it.
Ryzen performance is closely linked to rapid RAM.
Overclocking could give you an edge.
It might be worth a shot.
But is the effort justified?
Perhaps it’s better to purchase a compatible 3600 speed RAM replacement kit.
That could cost around $60.
