I was in intel i7 4790k before and after long waiting for like 11 years upgraded my system to:
AMD Ryzen 7 7700X Desktop Processor
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Halo ARGB CPU Air Cooler
Asus TUF Gaming B650M Plus WIFI Motherboard
G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo 64GB 32GBx2 Kit F5-6000J3040G32GX2-TZ5NR (Matte Black)
After I upgraded to this system and booted with windows 11 I noticed the RAM speed showing as 4800MT but it should be 6000, So I updated motherboard BIOS to latest version which is 3222...
Still 4800MT, then I read in some posts that I need to enable EXPO in order to get 6000MT, but whenever I enable EXPO/EXPO 2/EXPO Tweaked my system do not POST at all, I have to manually reset CMOS in order to get it booted with default 4800MT, what could be reason behind this?
I ran memtest86 4 times and no error found... What could be the problem?
I am using a SeaSonic 850W PSU and RTX 3060Ti as GPU....

If you set EXPO than the mobo will need to go through memory training. The yellow led will be lit and mobo will need 30 seconds to several minutes to pass memory training. Have you waited that long? Is it hanging on the yellow LED?
