Has anyone been able to overclock past 2993MHz with X370 motherboards?

I'm using F4e BIOS on the Gigabyte AX370 Gaming K7 and I've managed to hit 2993MHz using Ryzen Master. Ryzen Master allows RAM voltage up to 1.32V.
Using F3 BIOS, I only got 2666 to boot.
My RAM is a pair of 8GB G.Skill 3200MHz Tridentz with 16CAS, which uses SK Hynix chips, if I'm not mistaken.
If someone has done it using BIOS (XMP fails), I would really appreciate some advice, or even a link.

Thank you.
 


Im running eactly the same ram on 2 motherboards, an MSI B350m Mortar, running at 3200mhz stable, you can see that here: https://youtu.be/JaQgj3PPTu8

And also doing the same on my MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon since the beta bios that just came out yesterday:

Set to XMP Profile 2 giving 1.35v to the RAM and 1.100v NB.

As I said, XMP profile doesn't work for me, the system won't boot at all. I want to try a manual configuration, though I'm not really sure what changes are required, besides the multiplier and the DRAM voltage. Timmings are correct using Auto, but the system won't boot. It is a beta BIOS though.
 


Nope, when I had a Gigabyte Gaming 3 mobo in the begining, I had this same problem, its doesnt like tyhe settings changed manually, thats one reason I swapped from Gigabyte to the MSI B350, I was so impressed, I got the MSI X370.

 


I tried the manual setup, used 1.36V and the 16-18-18-38 timings. I didn't change anything else, and the system posted without a problem, even booted to Windows. I haven't tried a stess test though.
