I have not touched anything in the bios yet, I'm not that experienced with diving into the bios and manually changing shit. Any suggestions or step by step would be a huge help if not ty for the help anyway!
 


I believe my G.Skill Trident Z 3000MHz was at 2133MHz at first. But if you go into the BIOS you'll see a setting to change the "XMP Profile". It is always different depending on mobo brand, but going into BIOS is easy and that is where you will fix it. Give it a shot. And report back.

I didn't see xmp profile but I saw some easy overclock setting and used it and comp was crashing so I had to restore defaults I wonder if I need to change the voltage or timings but i have never done that.

I'm running the asus crosshair vi hero am4

That was exactly it that worked! Tysm!
 


Glad to have helped. Get familiar with the BIOS as it is the best place to change settings, especially if you overclock the CPU. For GPU, I always use MSI Afterburner (works for all brands of GPUs).
