My current ram is Klevv Bolt X 8GB (4x2), it's rated at 3200MHz CL16 1.35v, paired them with R5 3600 and ASRock B450 Pro 4. Whenever I tried to enable XMP, it crashes (blue screen) then automatically restart 3 times, then it boots to desktop but my ram get back to 2666MHz CL19. I've tried using DRAM calculator, copied everything, but still unsuccessful, I've even tried to bump the voltage to 1.45v and loose the timing heavily, but it still crashes. Any help?

Another person had problems with that brand.


Is the ram placed in 2nd and 4th slot from cpu?

Test ram with memtest. Memtest guide here;

  • This is actually the 3rd kit I've tried, 1st was unbranded 4x2 3200Mhz Kit (doesn't work, so I returned it), 2nd was GSkill RipjawsV 4x2 3200MHz CL16 kit (also doesn't work, I returned it). Is it possible that it's my mobo's fault?
  • It is in 1st and 3rd slot, I've tried 2nd and 4th slot but also doesn't work.

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't get any notification.
