Internal case speaker beeping when I set RAM to 3200 MHz.

When I set the RAM to run at 3200 MHz and save/exit BIOS, the internal case speaker beeps 3 times and the computer restarts (over and over). Eventually the custom-set RAM speed changes to the default RAM speed, which is 2133 MHz. 

-- Motherboard: ASRock B450 Gaming K4
--CPU: Ryzen 3 3200G
--RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro (CMW32GX4M2C3200C16)

I put this parts list together and am looking for some advice. https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=7f8c901b-163f-4006-8c82-feac13bdbb09

    Greetings @jewels

    Just means you're failing to POST. The 3200G is Zen+ architecture rather than Zen 2 like the 3000 series offerings without an APU. Can make it more difficult to hit higher memory clock speeds. What BIOS version are you on? You can check from the BIOS or press Windows + R and type: msinfo32
