Hello guys! I have some weird problem. I can't set my RAM on the highest settings possibile which is 2933 MHz. I have all 4 modules installed with same exact RAM modules which is golden ADATA AX4U3000W4G16-DGZ x2. I mean it's its 4x4 GB. I\ve tried setting all vaules manually and by Auto and still couldn't run it higher than 2400 MHz. When I had only 2 RAM modules installed I could even set them to 2800 MHz. My mobo is MSI B350 PC MATE paired with Ryzen 5 1500X.

EDIT:
I have the newest BIOS installed as of right now.
 
When all 4 channels are populated the max speed they will run is 2666 on 400 series and 2400 on 300. This is on amd's page for the 300 series of motherboards. It is only within dual channel 2/4 channels populated that you would see the 2933 memory speed.
