[SOLVED] Installing 3600mhz kits in a motherboard that supports 3200mhz only

[Samuel-212]

Hello,
Today I received my 16x2gb ram kits and I noticed that they have sent me 16x2gb @ 3600mhz despite the fact that I had order 16x2gb 3200mhz. My motherboard is an Asus h610m a and it only supports 3200mhz so what should I do right now ?

CPU: i5 12400f
Mobo: Asus h610m a

Install the RAM and look if it has XMP for 3200 Mhz. It might have.

If not, look if you can manually OC the RAM from BIOS with correct frequency.

Overall, RAM will work at JEDEC speeds of 2133/2400/2666 Mhz.

You are good. 3600 speed ram will initially operate at default 2400 speeds.
Once in the bios, you can set the speed to the 3200 that the motherboard supports. Usually this is done by a XMP setting.
