Hi @Terppi 

 

It depends on many things, the main one is to know what CPU you have because the frequency of a ram can not go higher than that supported by a CPU.

 

second, what type of memory do I buy, do I buy JEDEC or XMP based memory, if it is XMP you have to know the model of the computer to know if it has BIOS compatible with XMP and allows to increase the frequency.

 

Then in order to help you better please indicate the model of the computer and type of processor you have.

 

Always remember that if the processor does not allow it, you can set the highest frequency you want, but the memory BUS always decreases the frequency to be compatible with the processor.

ok, it supports 3200 frequency, now you probably bought XMP memory, the only way to enable 3200 is to enter the BIOS and see if you have that option but you should buy JEDEC based memory.
