[SOLVED] G SKILL 32GB 3600Mhz CL18 runs half slower

[Ronin625]

I have the G.Skill F4-3600C18D-32GTZN and it is supposed to be running at 3600mhz but according to CPU-Z it's running at 1066.4mhz or (2133mhz according to task manager) - how do I bring the speed to where it should be? Thanks

Use the XMP (Intel) or DOCP (AMD) option in the BIOS.

I did and my PC does not want to boot at all, don’t see the BIOS. Do I reset CMOS?

You may need to tweak settings to get your system to work at those speeds.

Clear CMOS by means of removing CMOS battery or bridging CLRCMOS pins on the motherboard.

What are your full system specs?

Yep, I did and it's now working.

Specs:

ASUS STRIX B450-I
Ryzen 3700x
G Skill 32GB 3600mhz CL18
EVGA GTX 960
Corsair RM750

Forgot to mention, I messed with the timings and stuff in the BIOS before posting this and it didn't work as well. I'm going to link what I had and it didn't work to

For memory speed, always ensure you have the latest BIOS. Since you have a 3xxx CPU, you probably already do, but it is worth checking.

I do, it’s the first thing I did

Set speed to 3600mhz

Set DRAM to 1.45v

Set CPU SOC to 1.1v

Don’t worry, I went to sleep, woke up today and turned it on and saw that it’s now running on 3600mhz, thank you though!
