[SOLVED] Computer crashed after installing new ram but it's working okay now

[Neby]

I installed two 8 GB sticks of G.Skill TridentZ RGB 3600mhz, and when I went into BIOS it was running at the previous RAM's speed of 2133 mhz so I overclocked it to 3600mhz and my pc crashed after about 10 seconds. It gave me blue screen the restarted and was okay for 5 minutes before chrome started to crash. I shut down my pc and instead changed the frequency of the RAM to 3200 in order to match my AMD Ryzen 5 1600's frequency. Will it be okay or should I be worried?

Also, no, you don't have to worry, what happened was normal since you forced it at 3600. Just update the profile by reading the thread above. You're welcome
