    Did you enable the 3600 MHz XMP Profile in the Bios ?

    You need to find out why you can`t run 32GB of memory at 3600 MHz

    I read at my motherboard's site stated that 3200mhz and above depend on the capable of cpu and also find out that only memory slot 2 and 4 being tested to run up to 3600mhz. I tested it, i can only run up to 3000mhz with 4 sticks and up to 3600mhz
    in 2 sticks regardless the size of ram.

    I wonder if you or anyone can answer this. Does running memory at speed beyond cpu's spec sacrifice quality over performance ? .

    I would think, Hell no.

    You have an odd board there.

    You can always start a chat with Gigabyte or send them an email.

    If you can find out for sure that you can run 2 16GB 3600 sticks in 2 certain slots, then that`s what you`ll have to do, if you want faster memory.

    But remember this, gaming also depends alot on the video card you are using

    Ok, i went back to my mainboard's site to take a look at the memory support list. My rams is not listed and you're right but only some brands/models of rams were able to run 3600mhz at all slots.
