Samsung B-Die C14 Suggestions

You'll need to change the memory settings but at least you can restore the other easily with a profile. Let the FlareX start at first with all Auto settings for the memory options. It should default to 2400 and 1.2V. Just to check if it is working fine out of the box, mine was fine. I haven't tried using the XMP profile since even manually I could not get the memory to work at 3200. It might work now with the new UEFI version, I haven't tried it. I don't know if you've seen this, but there is a new option for memory overclocking in the Advanced, AMD CBS screen, called DRAM Timing Configuration. I had to set the Overclock option in that screen to Enabled before any manual memory speed changes would be applied. You can also set the timings in that screen. I set the memory speed manually to 2933, with timings of 14 14 14 14 34, DRAM Voltage of 1.35V. Yes there are four timings to set to 14, the final one, Tras, is 34. Posts above have inspired me to try the XMP profile, wish me luck!

Have you tried the XMP profile on Bios v2.30 yet?

I have a 3600 B-Die Corsair vengeance kit all ready to roll once I get the parts together for my Ryzen build.

The Flare X is probably B-die

But it's the Trident Z 3200mhz CL 14 8x2GB kits that are B-die

The prices are just silly though

It makes no difference really. The jumper clears basic settings and the battery removal clears the RTC data as well as some deeper settings not accessable via the UI as well as basic settings. Generally I place the jumper in the clear position, remove the battery, let the system sit for an hour then put the jumper back to it's default position and replace the battery. All this with the power cord pulled from the system.
