x370 pro gaming memory issue

heres what im using
gskill f4-3200c15d-16gtz (its a 2 x 8gb kit = 16gb)
it is normal tridentz but heres the deal the c14 and c15 3200 kits are all samsung b die
NOT ALL THE C16 KITS ARE ! be warned .......
my actual installation is then as follows
two sticks of ram at 8gb each inserted into slot a2 and b2

now with version bios 2
i can either just click xmp and it loads them ok
or manually set them
either way
i show
15
15
15
35
but when the system boots it always loads 16/15/15/35 into windows (even still says 15/15/15/35 in bios)
no real problem i cant wait for later bios
the other settings i change are
SOC voltage to 1.00 volts and i set it fixed voltage and LLC level 2
vcore is set to fixed volts and llc level 2 also
but i use the p states to tune the cpu and the settings for that are
9c which equals 3900mhz
8
27 which equals 1.306 volts vcore

bryan at tech city (search tech city on you tube) has a very nice simple and easy to understand overclocking guide for the p states cpu on his you tube channel its well worth a watch (is based on taichi bios but should be similar to yours)

I think that now the most important for me is if should I give back my cl16 f4-3200C16d-32gvk and there is only a little chance that it will work on highest frequencies with may bios update. Looks like lowdog was able to achieve 3000Mhz but with 18cl?!
