I recently built my first PC and have been attempting to overclock it. I've followed a few videos and everything seems to be running smoothly, but I'm stuck with my RAM speed showing 5600MHz instead of the expected 6000MHz, despite having EXPO enabled. I'm not sure how to resolve this issue, so any guidance would be really appreciated! For reference, I'm using a Crucial Pro 32GB DDR5 RAM kit.

There are usually multiple EXPO profiles available. You should check CPU-Z and navigate to the SPD tab—this will let you see what speeds each EXPO/XMP profile is set to.
It might help if you post screenshots of the various CPU-Z tabs; that way, we can get a better idea of what's happening and provide more targeted advice.
Make sure you're loading the correct EXPO profile. For instance, EXPO-0 is set for 6000MHz. If you're using that one, you should be good! Also, it's worth checking what settings your MSI motherboard is applying.
