Hopefully this will be the last issue I have with this build (if you haven't seen my posts, I've had A LOT of problems)

I know with a lot of Mobos there's a limit to how fast the ram can be, and using faster will just work the same as the limit. However my mobo says it supports up to 4400Mhz DDR4 RAM. I installed 2x 3200Mhz DDR4 Ram and it's showing as 2166Mhz or something like that in the bios. Not 100% sure on exact number, but I remember thinking it was roughly 1000Mhz slower than it was supposed to be.

Hoping someone here can offer some advice, is there a way I can make it reach full speed? Or is something wrong? Or maybe that's just how it's supposed to be?

Mobo: Asus TUF Gaming x570-PLUS (wifi)
RAM: 2x 8gb G.Skill Ripjaws V 3200Mhz

Thank you!!!

These new, faster, better machines are so much more complicated haha. My last build had 1600Mhz and I thought that was good :LOL: Never had to change settings like that before.
