So I waited a few years to finally fill the empty slots on my Asus Rog Crossfire VII Hero (Wi-Fi) x470 board with my 2700x & I bought the G.SKILL Trident Z Neo (For AMD Ryzen) Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin RGB DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Desktop Memory Model F4-3600C18Q-32GTZN kit. I check QVL's and noticed that while it wasn't on the list for 2000 series for this board it was on the list for this board for 3000 series CPUs' I figured that "Hey it's at least compatible with the board so maybe it'll work!" but I cannot get beyond 3333 to post to the OS & even that's unstable after awhile with bluescreens so I bumped the voltage up to 1.35.
I looked through a lot of threads in these forums to get some ideas of what to do. I tested every chip individually & they all posted @3600 on their own so nothing is wrong with any of the sticks. I tried upping the voltage to 1.4 because I don't wanna go any further but the farthest I got was 3466 & that was unstable with more blue screens. I didn't wanna pump any more voltage than what I've read was the max so I tried to be as cautious as possible because I'm not too familiar with overclocking memory.
Now I'm hoping there might be another way to get this to work with my 2700x but I don't wanna go out & drop $$ on a 3000 series chip unless I know almost for certain that it'll resolve the issue. Anyone have any ideas of what I could try next or did I hit a dead end?
