XMP profile issues with Ryzen 3700X
XMP profile issues with Ryzen 3700X
Checked if there are three identical RAM kits. It seems your system may prefer a different brand or model, so consider using a kit from the QVL list. Also, note that after installing my new PC, even though the BIOS showed the right XMP profile, the RAM didn’t reach its rated speed. To fix this, I had to turn off XMP and set the correct speed and timings manually. Once done, everything functions properly at the intended settings. You might find this approach helpful too.
The first sets I purchased were two 2x8GB Corsair kits, but now I have a quad setup. It’s also listed in the compatibility section, which is why I chose it at first. Once I configured my timings (16-18-18-36), everything worked smoothly without any issues. Odd, though.
It might be the motherboard. I experienced strange crashes on a B450 board—looks like RAM, changed the board, kept the RAM, and no more issues. I didn’t run MemTest, so I assumed the problem was hardware-related. MSI boards aren’t usually reliable, and Ryzen boards tend to have many issues too. I’d consider switching to another board and double-check that your RAM is properly seated in the QVL.
