" rel="nofollow - Do you know if your RAM has XMP profiles? My guess is that it does. Assuming this is the case, in the UEFI/BIOS see if you can find the settings for DRAM or Memory configuration. Is there a setting for something like "Load XMP Profile" or such setting? If it is set to 'Auto', try setting it to XMP or XMP 2.0, exit the UEFI/BIOS and save the changes. Check your memory times and check for stability. I have a different mobo/memory, but by default, my memory was running at the specs, until I changed the DRAM configuration to use XMP 2.0. ------------- x299e-itx/ac | i7-7820X@3.60GHz | 32GB - 4x8GB Quad Channel@3000MHz GSkill DDR4 | nVidia GTX 1060M w/ 6GB GDDR5 | Samsung 960 Pro 512GB | Samsung 960 Pro 1TB | 160GB Seagate Momentus | Panasonic UJ265 |

Yep. my ram has XMP profile 2.0 in bios, i go to ''Advanced settings'' then i click on ''OC Tweaker'' then i choose (DRAM COnfiguration) In this menu (Load Xmp settings, BCLK Frequency, Dram reference clock and DRAM Frequency) all of this is set on AUTO. When i enable XMP-> save and exit, restart the pc then get back on bios, everything is set back on deafault settings and i dont know why. But i upload some pics here. https://imgur.com/a/B8vA4 Hope its works. |

Did you save the changes when exiting UEFI? ------------- Richard |

| " rel="nofollow - I have a similar motherboard (Z370 Taichi) and the manual told me to use slots A2 and B2. I got mine to work at 3200 the first time with no tweaking. Maybe try the other slots? |

I was able to get my 3200 MHz RAM to run at 3200 by manually setting vccio to 1.1 and vccsa to 1.15 in UEFI (as suggested earlier in this thread). I will try to overclock the RAM soon. If this is a problem in the UEFI BIOS with setting these values too high, ASRock should correct that. I wouldn't think it is the XMP settings in the RAM because I am using G. Skill RAM and other manufacturers such as Corsair exhibit the same issue. I left my RAM in A2 & B2 and also left the voltage at 1.35. ------------- Richard |

I'm new also. Had the board for only 2 weeks now. I'm not sure if my settings are set at 3200 but it's been stable like this since I had the board. I did upgrade the bios last week to 1.30. |

I know this is an old thread with no definitive answer... but today I realized that my brother had never configured his RAM to be at 3600mhz, and was still using 2133mhz. I guess he's been sitting at that configuration for 2 years. He was able to get the RAM speed up to 2933mhz (albeit unstably), but setting it any higher would not stay configured. Earlier in this thread gman737 suggested ensuring that the RAM was installed in slots A2 and B2. Indeed, my brother had his slots installed in A1 and B1. He swapped his RAM sticks to be in slots A2 and B2, and then was able to set the RAM speed to 3600mhz successfully! Hopefully posting this confirmation of that fix is useful to someone else. |

| I run a i7-6700K and I have two Corsair vengeance 8GB sticks and I can?™t for the life of me understand why I cannot get 3200 frequency. It just resets to default after I change or I?™m unsure if it?™s even changing at all. Posting a screenshot of my view If I could find out how to do that via phone one moment please |

Had same issue with z170 gaming K6 and Patriot 3600.(i6700k) XMP will not work. I changed as suggested here the setting of vccio to 1.1 and vccsa to 1.15 and it solved the problem and my memory runs at 3600 at A2/B2 with 1.35V |
