I have 3000MHz ram, but system is only detecting 2133MHz

[thebrodingo]

So I have no idea what I'm doing, I just started up my computer for the first time, this is my first build fyi, and it took me to something called msi click bios 5. I had no idea what to do there, so I just looked around and noticed that it's only recognizing 2133MHz instead of 3000MHz. I don't know why or how go fix it.

Also, what am I supposed to do? everything seems normal except for that, but I have no idea what I'm supposed to do. Also I haven't bought the Windows 10 driver yet, but what do I do when I do have it?

Is it ryzen if it is enable xmp

In the EUFI section dealing with the memory you should see something similar to enable XMP profile, assuming your RAM supports XMP, it will automatically overclock to it's rated value. (From what I've heard)

([strike]AMDs is called AMP[/strike] - Seems I was wrong about this)

Enable XMP in the BIOS (during startup) which should detect the correct speed & voltage. If enabling XMP doesn't work then you can manually set the speed/voltage in the BIOS, just make sure your motherboard supports that speed. For Windows 10 you will want to purchase a key through the Windows store and then activate Windows which I think can be done through the Windows Update screen > Activation.

Enable XMP in the BIOS. At stock the motherboard will apply the JDEC DDR4 standard which is 2133mhz, if you want your ram to run at it's advertised speeds you must enable XMP. Some AMD mobo's don't have XMP, instead they have DOCP profiles apply one of them if you have an amd mobo with no option for XMP.

This is how its done if you want to just set the speed.
