Hey everyone! I'm working with a budget B550 motherboard from Koloe, but the BIOS is in Chinese, and unfortunately, it doesn't have XMP support. I recently bought some 3600MHz RAM, but I can only get my display to work at 2400MHz. This is frustrating because my previous RAM worked fine at 3200MHz without changing any BIOS settings. Since I have to tweak the voltage and some custom settings, are there any specific configurations I can try to resolve this issue? I've currently set the voltage to 1.35V.

It sounds like your new RAM might need some tweaking to reach its rated speeds, which can often be more challenging on budget boards. Make sure you're checking the memory timings as well, not just the voltage. Also, using Google Translate on your BIOS settings could help you understand what options you have to adjust. If it's still stuck at 2400MHz, the motherboard might not fully support those higher frequencies with the current configuration.
That makes sense! I just found it odd that my old RAM worked at 3200MHz out of the box. I guess it could be compatibility issues?
