Question A-XMP on msi b450 board caused boot loop

[amshak01]

I’m very new to anything having to do with overclocking, but the ram I have in my custom build is rated to 3200 so I tried enabling the XMP profile and it caused a boot loop which I could not get into the bios and no signal reached the monitor. I pressed and held the power button and force shut down and managed to somehow get back into the BIOS and then tried the second XMP profile. Later figured out that the Ryzen 5 2600 goes up to 2933. With the 2933 profile I was able to get into Windows by I blue screened as soon as I logged in. Any advice how I can get the highest possible speeds from my RAM? It’s G.Skill Ripjaws DDR4-3200.

Looks like I'm using a rather old version of the BIOS. Will give that a go. Thanks!
