The description on my mobo says DDR4 2667/ 2400/ 2133, my question is can it go above that at all? I have 3000mhz Corsair ram and would like to use all of it. Thanks.

Yes Ryzen does better with high speed memory. No that memory is probably not going to run over 2400 with a Ryzen setup. You need 3200/14 or 3466/16 ( or faster ) to get over DDR4 3000 speeds. You specifically need Samsung B-die ICs in your memory modules.


BIOS updates will continue to improve Ryzen memory compatibility but I'm not sure if that specific RAM will ever run at its rated speed.


Edit: With the newest BIOS that board says it supports DDR4 3200. You would need to buy better RAM to get those speeds though.
