Hello there. I'm pretty new to overclocking and especially RAM. I was hoping that i would be able to squeeze a few more MHz out of my kit and maybe lower the CL a little. Performance is awesome! I have a Thaiphoon Burner screenshot that might be able to help based off of what I've read thus far, and maybe someone in the crowd will be able to help me squeeze the timings a little tighter!
This is my setup:
MSI Z390 Gaming-Plus
I7-9700KF
Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200MHz CL16 (CMK32GX4M2E3200C16).

Not sure what die this is, but I would set dram voltage to 1.35v. set cl20-24-24 and rest on auto, then try increasing speed. They may work at 3600 or even above. Also raise SA-voltage to 1.3v. once you can't boot higher or ot is unstable very fast try tightening timings. If you end up at 3600 for instance maybe cl18-21-21 may work. Try running rrds 4, rrdl 6, faw 16. If not posdible try 5, 7, 20 or 6,8,24. Rrd/faw has a major impact on performance. Let me know how it goes and I can try to help you further :)

That is Samsung C-Die. I got the same in 8GB sticks. Most unique part about those chips is they prefer lower voltages and sweet spot at ~1.33V. Mine refuse to go past 3200, but some go as high as 3600. As for timings I'll provide a screenshot of mine, but those took a lot of trial and error and stability testing to get to.

You might have to help me out a bit here man. Like I said I'm new to overclocking as a whole, so I don't really know what I'm looking at TBH. I know that I have to change it in the BIOS, but are you telling me to set my Ram voltage to 1.33, and just copy the timings from your ASRock Timing Configurator?

You can't just copy anyones timings because silicon lottery causes the same settings that are stable for one to be unstable for the next person. Only way to find what works for your system is adjusting things and stress testing it to see if you get errors (any single error is bad). The 1.33V are most likely going to be the most stable, but again depending on how close to the edge you want to push it, experimentation might be required. I can tell you for a fact that memory OC is the most tedious thing ever. I recommend following a guide like this one.
My timings were just meant as a kind of reference of what you might expect in any given timing. I used TM5 with the extreme anta777 profile and found this to yield errors fairly quickly although that depends on what you are tweaking. tREFI for example will not show errors on even 3 hour long stress tests but randomly crash your system/programs when it is set too high. I had it at 36000 for a while but after some weirdness in the following months lowered it to 32000 and it is fine ever since.
