Gigabyte x470 Aorus Ultra Gaming

Hi everyone!

I recently built a new PC with a Ryzen 2600x on the Gigabyte x470 Aorus Ultra Gaming motherboard. I bought a pack of 16gb (2x8gb) sticks of G.Skill Ripjaws 3200 mhz RAM.
Model: F4-3200C16D-16GVKB
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231941

When I went into the BIOS and enabled XMP Profile1 to make use of the 3200 speed, I think I ran into some stability issues because I'd get BSODs.
When I disable XMP, everything seems fine.

Is this a matter of compatibility between the Mobo and this specific RAM?
Or do I need to update the BIOS? (which I am very wary of doing)

Thank You!

Hello
I did a build with the same mobo and Ryzen 5 2600. Mobo set to profile 1.
The issue might be with your Ram and cpu.
I went to AMD website and found a list of preferable RAM.

Would you mind linking the specific RAM you purchased?

Thank you!
