#PC Crashes when running ram at 3600 mhz

I have no idea what the bot objected to 😐

#

I recently upgraded to ddr4 64gb 3600 ram and had been running it at 2400 with zero issues, but when I select this built in profile to run it at full speed the computer boots fine and then crashes to blue screen after about 10 minutes of idle (no usage) with the error of “win32kfull.sys failed”. Is there any way I can fix that to run the ram at full speed or am I stuck at 2400? When I select “auto” the values are 2400 and 1.2V, and this built in profile which I assume is to run the ram at full speed is 3600 and 1.35V. My specs are:
Ryzen 7 5800x
Neo forza ddr4 64gb 3600
Zotac 3060ti
Asrock b450m pro4
Evga 650g+ supernova

#

Could I try not loading that XMP profile and just manually setting those values? I’m new to changing ram speeds

whats your bios version?

4x16GB is likely not going to run faster than 3200 cl16 on that mtoherboard

B450M Pro4 P4.60

#

Yeah it’s unclear from Asrock websites whether it supports 3200 or 3600

worn breach
#

that board only officially supports 4x16GB at 2666MT/s

#

but you should be able to run it all at maximum 3200 cl16

#

if not 3200 you can try 2933 or 3000

turbid vigil
#

Ok I’ll try it, what would the voltage be?

#

1.2V?

worn breach
#

as a test, set your xmp then manually drop the speed to 3200

#

1.2 is default for 2133-2666, you need 1.35 for 3200 and 4 modules

turbid vigil
#

Alright I’ll test it, thx

worn breach
#

you might even need as much as 1.4v for 4x16GB at 3200 for stability

#

oh and dont worry too much about the sped drop, you wont notice the difference between 3600 cl18 and 3200 cl16

turbid vigil
#

So the XMP should be set to that profile rather than auto, and then manually lower the frequency?

worn breach
#

yeah just set xmp and then manually change the ram speed to 3200 so it uses the spec'ed timings. if it works you can try lowering the timings

#

you might be able to just set 3200 and have it automatically set cl16 timings with auto settings

turbid vigil
#

Alright thx, testing it now

#

Is it worth upgrading motherboards in the future to go from 3200 to 3600 or would that not be noticeable?

worn breach
#

not really

#

i'd onlu upgrade if it was cheap for a decent b550 and you want to run gen 4 nvme drives

#

Booted successfully, gonna let it sit for a while and see

#

i got my b550 tomawhawk for $150 back in 2021 black friday

worn breach
#

ill get the link

#

dont worry too much, it;s not difficult to run

#

it's a quick 6ish minute memory test to see if any errors pop up

turbid vigil
#

Hmm it won’t let me open the download link

worn breach
#

right click and open in new tab

turbid vigil
#

Tried that, keeps saying this

worn breach
#

oh hmmm

#

well that is the link hundreds of people use

#

ill find another link

turbid vigil
#

Yeah I don’t have a problem with it, tried two browsers and both are saying that

#

Computer hasn’t crashed yet though so it must be slightly better

worn breach
#

well i would still run a ram tester. you could throw memtest86 on a flash drive and run it over night

#

should only take 5 hours or less with 64GB of ram

turbid vigil
#

Ok I’ll try to find something, thx
