AMD CPU overclocking & XMP ram issues

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi
I recently brought an AsRock B450 Fatality Gaming K4 motherboard to use it with Ryzen 5 2600 processor for a PC build video. Ever since I finished the build & booted up the PC, processor is running @ 3.4Ghz & RAM @ 2133MHz only.
I tried every possible way to overclock the CPU to little like 3.8 to 3.9GHz with 1.3 to 1.35V & RAM also I tried XMP profile 1 which detects my RAM at 3200MHz but as soon as I save it & reboot. The PC starts & shuts 2-4 times and then boots up with same default settings.

I have tried numerous ways with various speeds, voltages for both RAM & processor but it failed.
Later I update the BIOS to P3.50 which I think was a big mistake as after updating I read that for Pinnacle Ridge CPUs no need to BIOS upgrade. 

Could you possibly help me with this??? How can I downgrade my BIOS now OR do I need to do it??? 
What bios version is perfect for 2nd Gen Ryzen CPUs like Ryzen 5 2600 to overclock both CPU & RAM? It is not overclocking even the RAM speeds also not changing with default bios P3.20

Currently its at 3.4Ghz & RAM @ 2133
