[SOLVED] PC doesnt boot after applying XMP profile

[whtswg]

Hello.

My specs are:

11400f
ASUS TUF GAMING B560M-PLUS
Crucial 2x16GB DDR4 3600MHz Ballistix Black

Im noob at OC, so after some googling I found out that all I need to do is to set XMP profile at BIOS. I have two options XMP1 and XMP2. I have tried both of them and the result is the same - PC doesnt boot. So I have to use default "auto" option which set my ram at 2666. Any idea how to make it work at 3600?

My bios is up to date, ram set up at a2 b2 slots.

Download CPU-Z and look under the SPD tab. It will list the reported speeds and timings for JEDEC and XMP. Take a pic with your phone or write these down. Boot to BIOS and manually set those timings starting with the next highest from 2666 and see if it will boot. Repeat until it doesn't and go with the last settings that booted properly.

Edit- keep in mind the numbers shown there are .5 the speed of your Double Data Rate RAM.

Im not sure what exactly was the problem, but I have reset bios settings and right after I was able to choose XMP1 and boot successfully at 3600Mhz!
