Hey there! I built this PC with these specs: a Ryzen 7 3700X, Asus Prime B550M-A motherboard, 2x8 GB HP V6 RAM at 3600 MHz, and a WD Green M.2 SSD. I enabled the DCOP profile and tried setting things to 3600 MHz with 1.5V, but it didn’t work. It only started when I lowered it to 3066 MHz, and then I could push it up to 3133 MHz at 1.6V without issues—though I haven’t pushed it that high yet. I’m worried about whether the voltage settings are safe and if I can really hit the advertised speeds. Any tips or warnings?

The ram is garbage. Fat chance to run it's rated frequency. 1.6v on this memory might not be ok..... it's not worth the risk imo. Nothing you're doing wrong. Just horrible ICs on them sticks. The memory controller doesn't like em.

Yes, you can try setting the voltage to 1.5 V and operating at 3066 MHz.

Consider adjusting the timing settings to optimize performance. It seems the board might be assigning random values incorrectly, which could lead to instability.

This price feels unreal at 1.5v. Perhaps a higher frequency like 2933MHz with a different configuration works better. Let's check if it can get posted.
