Hello!

I recently purchased a CPU Cooler and decided to start overclocking my PC's components. I got stable frequencies for the CPU and iGPU but for the RAM i cant go past 2933Mhz (which is achieved with the XMP profile) even with everything else at stock speeds.I did also update the BIOS to P5.50 which includes the AGESA 1.0.0.6.
I followed this guide cause the one here on Tom's Hardware was a bit complicated for me. :pt1cable:
https://www.overclockers.com/forums/showthread.php/785102-DDR4-RAM-overclocking-101-guide

I also did not go past 1.2Volts for the SoC and 1.35 Volts for the RAM DIMM Voltage cause i was a bit worried since my RAM indicates 1.35v on its cooler.

Any recommendations on what should i do or if it is even possible to go past 2933Mhz with this RAM/Motherboard combo?

Specs:
M/B: Asrock ab350m Pro4 / Bios P5.50
CPU: AMD 2200g
RAM: HyperX Predator 3000Mhz 2x8GB
GPU: iGPU Vega 8

Thanks in advance!

P.S.: Heres a table with supported RAM Frequencies from the Asrock's website.Does that mean i cant overclock more than 2933 Mhz?

Solution
Do you have them installed in correct slots on motherboard? 2933mhz is essentially 3000mhz. I wouldn't worry about that last few mhz. That memory is more than likely Hynix chips and anything over 3000mhz is unlikely on Ryzen platforms.

Thanks for the reply!

I can seem to get stable overclock with the below settings:

CPU: 3.75 Ghz @ 1.325 V
RAM: 2933Mhz @ 1.35 V 16-17-17-17-36-69 1T (through XMP)
iGPU: 1.5 Ghz @ 1.15 V
SoC Voltage: 1.15 V


The sticks rated timings are 15-17-17-17-36

I wanted to go beyond its rated 3000Mhz though to like 3200 Mhz or even 3600 Mhz since i use the iGPU.Is it possible?

Thanks!
