Fatality B350 Gaming k4 Memory @ 2933

I also realize XMP is worthless..and it won't run the xmp profile at all. Bios is 3.20 I would like to set it manually using the data from typhoon, however in the bios...there is no option available to change the Mem Freq., only timings and voltage.  I have read around and understand that xmp is mainly for Intel..which is why the profiles do not work with the ryzen...but xmp is the only option that gives an option to change freq. I hope this makes sense.   Memory is Gskill 8gb 3000

Have you changed to Advanced Mode from EZ Mode in the UEFI? All of the screens below are only available in the Advanced UEFI option.

I can't believe you don't have a DRAM Timing Configuration screen option in the OC Tweaker screen, in a B350 board with UEFI version 3.20

You should also have a DRAM Frequency option in the OC Tweaker screen.

Also, do you have this screen: Advanced\AMD CBS\DRAM Timing Configuration?

The XMP profile in not necessarily useless. While it is a standard designed by Intel,  if the data it contains is populated to work with AMD systems, then it can be used fine. XMP data is just a convenience feature to make configuring memory easy.

But if the XMP data is not perfect for AMD/Ryzen, which may be what you mean, then you can still apply the XMP profile to get the memory frequency option, and then manually change the other memory options. You're saying that the only way to get a memory frequency option is to enable XMP, correct?

If so, just do that, and either set all the other memory settings you are uncertain about to Auto, or to a value you (somehow) know is right.

You mentioned Thaiphoon Burner data. Thaiphoon Burner reads data from your memory, since all memory has multiple data profiles on it, besides the XMP profile. The other data is the JEDEC memory data profiles, one example of that is the stock/default memory speed and timings are stored and used by the UEFI/BIOS.

My point is if the XMP profile data was configured for Intel systems, ALL of the JEDEC data will also be configured for Intel systems. So unless you are using some custom memory profiles provided by Thaiphoon Burner, the data read from your memory will be for Intel systems. That does not mean that all of it will not apply to an AMD AM4 system, that varies depending upon the model of memory.

We have no idea what model of memory you have.

Oh yeah...I do have all the ram timing configs.
