First off, I want to link to the two components spec. pages for reference:
G.Skill
MSI Board
So the specifications seemed okay to me when I purchased. But after setting it all up, the auto-settings seem to be running the RAM at 2133. I see that the MSI only runs up to 3200 through OC, is that what is preventing me from utilizing all the speed of my RAM? Any time I attempt to alter the speed in the BIOS, the PC will run for a bit, then crash and revert. I seem to be having the same issue when I attempt to use the BIOS to OC the processor (i7-6800), even just .10Ghz up. Is there something wrong with the board, or has anyone with these two pieces found a successful setup? Forgive my ignorance, I have not built a PC in years, any help is greatly appreciated!
