Just built this PC a week ago. X570 Steel Legend, AMD 3600, Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro. Realized that my Corsair Vengeance 3200 was only putting out 2133 hz according to userbenchmark. However, whenever I change it in the bios to XMP profile and change the speed the 3200 MHz, it has major issues. I try playing CIV VI, and the game will come to a halt 2 turns in, as well as lock up my PC where I can?™t even force quit it. I have to restart it every time. When I leave it idle or just use chrome, it eventually comes to a stop and I have to force restart again. When I turn xmp profile off and revert the speeds, it runs fine. Anyone have any advice on how to fix this? I?™ve also already tried just editing the speed and not enabling the XMP and I get the same results. If I only enable XMP it doesn?™t change the speed at all.

Sounds like either your RAM is faulty and not recognising the XMP or it's not 3200 RAM - what's the model on the sticks themselves?

RAM should be installed in slots A2 and B2, if you only have 2 modules and install in A1 and B1 you often run into issues with XMP not working correctly.
If that isn't your issue then try set XMP then manually set the frequency to say 2666 and test for stability. If that is stable then bump it up some more and test again until you find the highest frequency that is stable for you. |

userbenchmark has intel 9400F ranked #1 processor & ryzen 3600 #2 please stop using this
i'd try to identify what IC's are the ram with thaiphoon burner and then use "DRAM Calculator for Ryzen" to give you ram timings and manually set them instead of relying on XMP btw which motherboard and bios |

Try powering off your pc, either flip the switch on the power supply or pull the cord from the power supply after its powered down..clear the cmos, power back up and get to the bios, then select the xmp profile.. then save and exit... try that.. if that doesnt seem to help any try bumping the dram voltage to 1.362 and see if that helps.. sometimes memory needs a little more voltage to stabilize it, a lot of factors contribute to that.. 1.362v will not hurt anything.. |

I've tried that ryzen dram calculator on 4 different sets of ram, 3000mhz cl15 e-die, two different pairs of 3200mhz cl 14 and cl16 e-die and 3600 cl16 b-die and not one worked with the timings that calculator gave me.. |

I ended up just using the xmp profile, set it to 3733mhz, set the fclk manually and increased the dram voltage to 1.362.. |

I forgot one step in my above comment, you have to enable the xmp profile and also select your dram frequency, so you would select xmp profile 1 and then select 3200mhz in the dram frequency drop down menu. The memory you have should be b-die according to corsair but dont quote me on that.. |

I have this issue as well. The XMP profile crashes constantly. I tried setting in manually, but the BIOS P4.60 and P4.90 won't let me set ram voltages past 1.300. No matter what I type above 1.300, it drops back to 1.300v
I'll have to double check the manually setting DDR-3200 with XMP profile enabled. |
