I just bought a Z590 Extreme, using G.skill Trident Z Royal 4266mhz ram and at first it wouldn't overclock past 3800mhz, but after the bios update to 1.50 it runs at 4266mhz, but now no higher, the ram should easily overclock to atleast 4600mhz but I can't even get it to 4400mhz so can you guys at Asrock update the bios for a better overclock? I have used Asrock motherboards for many years and have never had a problem overclocking G.skill ram past it's advertised speed until now.

Thanks.
