Question RAM speed problems, can't get the full 3000 Mhz to work ?

[luigiymario2]

I just recently bought 2 16 GB Ram sticks of the brand XPG (Adata) with 3000 Mhz and I can't get the DRAM to run at the full 3000 (2933 Mhz on my mobo); my computer won't POST after changing the dram to that; I've tried changing the voltage too but nothing, I need help I'm getting so frustrated, I have an ASUS motherboard too btw.

System specs:
CPU: Core i7-6700 (non-k)
RAM: The 2x16GB (32 GB RAM total)
GPU: RX 580 4 GB
Motherboard: Asus B150 Pro Gaming Aura
OS: 512 GB SSD M.2 NVME
1 HDD 2TB

You could try increasing the DRAM voltage to maybe 1.40v, it should be at 1.35v However the difference between 2933 and 3000mhz is virtually 0 so you could just leave it as is.

Do you have the RAM in the correct slots for when running 2 sticks per the motherboard instructions?

Already tried 1.40v earlier and no dice, yes I had already run before a dual channel 16 gb (2x8gb) with really no problems only been having problems with these new ram sticks

The B150 don't support that speed.
