Question XMP not applying in RAM

[albertlow_]

I have this RAM: Corsair Vegeance LPX 32GB(16x2)

I enabled XMP and my RAM still in 2133 Mhz. I applied the multiplier manually to get maximun Mhz for my RAM (3000Mhz is max) and still in 2133.

What can I do?

Hey there,

List your PC specs in full.

You might try update your bios, to ensure compatibility to start with.

Sorry but I already solved the problem, I took the RAM out of the slot, put it back in, change the XMP twice and it works. I have the BIOS in the latest version, the chipset too. I guess it's a bug or something

Great! Glad it's sorted.

Sorry men, it worked for lees than a week and now isnt working. I have the same problem again. I downgrade the BIOS version to prevent if its a bug but not. What can I do?
Sometimes if I put the multiplier to 2400MHz it works but if I put it to get 2900 or 3000 Mhz it doesn't work and it get stucked at 2133Mhz.

What software you are using to check frequency? Best is CPU-Z or aida64

Im checking it in Gigabyte EasyTune, in Task Manager in performance tab and UserBenchmark.

Is it possible that my motherboard is limiting the frequency of my RAM? Is it possible that it has a maximum frequency that it supports and is that why this happens?

1. 4 x DDR4 DIMM sockets supporting up to 64 GB of system memory
2. Dual channel memory architecture
3. Support for DDR4 3200(O.C.)/2933(O.C.)/2667*/2400/2133 MHz memory modules
   * Support for higher than DDR4 2667 MHz may vary by CPU.
4. Support for ECC Un-buffered DIMM 1Rx8/2Rx8 memory modules (operate in non-ECC mode)
5. Support for non-ECC Un-buffered DIMM 1Rx8/2Rx8/1Rx16 memory modules
6. Support for Extreme Memory Profile (XMP) memory modules

(Please refer "Memory Support List" for more information.)




This is from your motherboard tech spec, so no, it is intended to work at that frequency, only if is defective will not work. Also avoid installing all the gigabyte crap and use bios for controlling everything (OC, RAM XMP, etc.)

I only use the gigabyte software to check the info. I change the XMP profile and multipliers manually from BIOS. Now I changed to 2400 Mhz and it worked, then to 2900 and another time stucked at 2133Mhz.

Now is working at 2800 Mhz but I want to fix this problem and make it work at 3000Mhz
