So my friend got a Fatal1ty X370 Gaming X motherboard with a Ryzen 7 1700 CPU and 2x8GB RAM kit with DDR4 3000 XMP speed support. I don't remember 100% the actual model, I think it was this one: http://www.corsair.com/en-gb/vengea...z-c15-memory-kit-blue-led-cmu16gx4m2c3000c15b
I got into UEFI (latest version) and it seems like this RAM kit doesn't support any JEDEC speed other than 2133. I activated the XMP profile and set it to auto. After the reboot, the automatic XMP setting again chose the speed of 2133.
I manually set it to the 2400 XMP profile and after the reboot I remember the memory voltage went up to 1.25 V. What I don't know is if I overclocked the CPU. Did I? What if I set it to 2666?
I don't really know what's going on, the official maximum support of Ryzen 7 1700 is 2666, as is the motherboard's non-OC maximum speed but there is the Single Rank/Dual Rank nonsense as well so who knows. Also, does this memory support situation change with the UEFI updates or is it set in stone?
Thanks.
