" rel="nofollow - Yesterday I updated the bios of my  AB350B  Fatal1ty  gaming K4 in the hope my ram would finally run at 3200Mhz, since it was added to the supported raven ridge list  QVL list. Just to be disappointed by boot loops and instant BSOD.  Do you have any tips mabye tweak some voltages?

My system runs on a ryzen 1700 with corsair CMK16GX4M2B3200C16

thanks,

Clear CMOS and see if you still get BSODs and boot loops. Do not change any settings from defaults before booting. If the issues persist post back here, if not, redo your settings one at a time starting with XMP and see if any one particular setting is causing your problems.

Let us know how it goes.

There's two versions of this kit with the same SKU (one is Samsung, the other is Hynix). If you have a Hynix set, you might have to use 3066 or lower at default timings. My Hynix set runs fine at 3066 CL16 with the 1700. CL15 boots but will BSOD in Windows, while 3200 CL16 XMP refuses to boot until RAM training lowers the clock to default.

As I posted in another thread, I'm using an older BIOS based on AGESA 1.0.0.6b. If you don't have a new processor, there's no need to update beyond that.

Yesteday I cleared my CMOS and enabled XMP after but it just gave me a BSOD again.

I think this is the problem  I guess I also have a Hynix set. Is there someway to check this?
