[SOLVED] Memory Frequency Support

[epp82]

The manual of my Asrock x570m pro4 states the following frequencies:

What's the limiting factor for the frequency with 4 sticks? Only that they've not tested more?
I'm running 4x DR 3200 Mhz without any problems, so should I lower the frequency to 2667?!

It's that pushing four sticks is twice as hard as pushing two.

Hey @popatim , so it's out of concern of damaging the memory slots? How much weight do you guys lay on those specs?
Now I'm even more concerned I'm breaking something 😀

Well since the memory controllers are built into the CPU's that would lead to an expensive repair... <grin>
It's not 'pushing them' physically, it's electrically. There's the higher impedance load, more signal degradation, crosstalk/interference, timings...

You'll have to resort to manually overclocking the ram to see how much more you can get out of them unfortunately.
