[SOLVED] Ram Overclock not applying

[Zetax]

Hey there! I recently got my new RAM kit and tried overclocking it. But now, whenever I try to overclock the RAM frequency it just tells me that it is still at 2133Mhz even though it is set to 3000Mhz.
Does anyone know why this could be the case? I am using HWInfo and CPUZ to show my ram speeds,

I hope I can get some help here,

Greetings, Finn.

Components:

Ryzen 5 2600
Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 2x8 Kit
MSI B450M Pro VDH Plus

overclock or using the xmp/docp memory profile?

 

[Zetax]

Both don't work. Manually overclocking the frequency and both XMP profiles.

 

[rgd1101]

latest bios?

I updated about a month ago

is it not storing the oc or it failed the oc and return to the low speed?

Use 2933MHz manually. The ram should work out of the box at 3000MHz, but many boards don't have the ram tables or pcie buss to allow it. Every board has a 266Hz base, (2133, 2400, 2666, 2933MHz etc,) but 3000Hz is a 200Hz base, and only most, not all boards support such.

The bios can't train 3000MHz, so reverts to last good settings. Set the Xmp profile, then manually change the speed to 2933MHz.

Try to update your motherboard bios to the latest/latest beta.

The max speed will be limited by your 2000 series processor on that motherboard.
Here is the ram support qvl list:

I am guessing that 2666 is about the best you can do.
If you want, try increasing the ram voltage a bit higher than normal.

That page lists Kingston RAM running 3600 Mhz. You should sort by speed.
