Question Compatibility (messing with xmp settings)

[Munchy303]

I recently started messing with settings in the bios on my Asrock x370 Taichi Am4 board. I have it paired with a Ryzen 9 3900x and G.Skill Trident Z neo rgb 32gb 3600mhz RAM. When I set the speed to 3200mhz I get stutters and game crashes with the occasional OS crash. So I started digging into manuals and specs to see where these settings should be before messing with any voltage settings or anything like that. It's kind of odd though When I try to select my RAM on the bios dropdown menu it only shows corsair vengeance 3200 ram so I just left that setting to auto since that's not what is installed in the pc. In the x370 manual it's showing dual rank in a2 and b2 2400-2667. In the Ryzen 9 3900x specs it says double rank 2 dimms ddr4-3200.

So am I right in thinking my motherboard is limited to 2667 mhz with my current setup and if I were to upgrade my motherboard my cpu would limit my speeds to 3200?

300 and 400 series boards typically didn't do well with ram, above ddr4 3200. Is your bios up to date?

I'm not too sure. I know when I put this cpu in I had to update the bios but that was the last time I messed with it. How would I go about making sure it's up to date?

I'm using p5.60 version. Not sure if I should be using a different version than that or not. I just know I had to use this version when I first installed my 3900x

I updated to 7.0 then to 7.3 and it let me set it to 3600mhz. Doing some testing now.

Well now im getting constant memory management bsod errors. So I have no clue how to fix this.

This likely means that the motherboard cannot handle 3600mghz memory. Try setting to the XMP for that kit of ram and then manually setting the speed to 3200 mghz and test.
