Ouch…Honestly I’m not sure there’s anyway you’re going to get 3600 Mhz out of a C17 kit, and imo, the tuff series parts are really middling from what I’ve seen.
Also is it F4-3600C17-16GTZ, or is the a character right after the clock and CL timing after it?
D.O.C.P and a mix of manual settings would likely get you pretty far though. There’s likely nothing stopping you from getting something like 3000Mhz/3200mhz at something like a CL 16, maybe even 14? Buying more recent ram is really the way to go for ryzen atm. Nowadays it seems like it’s mostly plug n play with D.O.C.P, but that’s only for recent batches in my experience. From what I can find it looks like that kits a bit older and the settings it has for auto overclocks aren’t going to really pan out on your system.
And who knows, you might still get that 3600 at C17
So really the answer is, you’re gonna have to tune the timings, clocks, and power yourself (imo, it’s worth to me if you’ve never done it, like installing arch with just the wiki guide. After that just use manjaro or Anarchy.) And anything is better than having it run at something like 2300mhz.
Any consolation you can pretty much just use the normal voltage for memory in most cases. Although you’re free to play with it of course. Definitely going to want to look up reasonable voltages before messing with it though.
This memory is rated at 3600 MHz and runs fine like that with 2 sticks in single channel.
These very sticks ran fine at 3600 MHz for MONTHS of continuous use with Auto settings under DOCP. No issues until I updated the BIOS. So don’t tell me the memory won’t run at 3600 MHz or the MB isn’t capable.
Did you change the slots? Obviously not you have all of them in there. If you rolled back to what it was before I can’t think of anything else that would do it. Looks like you’re out of luck mate.
