Hi all. Can someone advise me how to use latest DRAM Calculator?

All tutorials are months / years old.

For exmaple, they are saying to click R-XMP button, but there is no R-XMP button in latest 1.7.2 version :/

I'm trying to configure my ram for my 3700x with Hero VIII.

Ram I bought is Patriot ( Samsung B-Die ) 4000MHz, 2x8GB kit.

Thaiphoon Burner - Completed XMP Report and exported and uploaded into DRAM Calculator.

All settings inputted in there as well: Zen2, Samsung B-Die, DRAM PCB revision - tried all 4 options, A0, A2, Manual and Bad Bin. Memory rank to 1, freq. at 4000MHz, BLCK 100, DIMM Modules - 2, mobo x570.

When I'm clicking FAST : "not supported, ONLY FAST with A2 profile!" - message

changed to A2...

"Not supported!" - message

Like I mentioned above, tried all options ( A2, A0, Bad Bin, Manual ) and always "not supported!" .

What am I doing wrong? Anyone?

Ram boots and works fine with 4000MHz.

My plan was to hit that sweet spot, I think around 3600MHz, with some good timings for Ryzen 3700x, but that my first time messing around with RAM Overclock.

Any advice appreciated !

Ryzen Dram Calc can be useful, but sometimes, if even one timing is out, it can yield worse performance than expected. If your running at XMP without issues then I wouldn't be too concerned. Running ram at 3600 with 2:1 ratio is the optimal setting, but you are hardly losing out on too much with faster clocks (400mhz) v tradeoff with async mem setting
What happens when you put the frequency down to a lower level? Let's say 3600?

The fast doesn't appear to work. On my version it says coming soon when I click it.
I can get settings for 3800MHz. but when I input all details into bios, and run benchmark - results are WORSE than standard docp settings for 4000MHz. Might just leave it at 4000MHz then...
