I'm having an issue with my PC where it shows my RAM speed as 4800MHz when I boot into Windows, but I have it set for 6000MHz with EXPO enabled. Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening?

Check out CPU-Z! Go to the Memory tab and see what it shows for your DRAM frequency. Remember, DDR means double data rate, so it should show around 3000MHz to equal 6000MHz. If it's not showing that, you might need to check your CPU, RAM, and motherboard specs.
Have you thought about doing a BIOS update? Sometimes that helps with RAM compatibility.
I actually updated the BIOS before enabling EXPO.
I already have CPU-Z from my Asus motherboard. It shows the DRAM frequency fluctuating around 3000MHz, so does that mean I'm in the clear? My setup is an Asus Tuf Gaming B850-Plus Wifi with an AMD Ryzen 9800x3d, an XFX Mercury Radeon RX 9070 XT GPU, and 32GB of G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000.
