It's a bit of a long shot, but maybe try the other two RAM slots. It should definitely be able to run at XMP settings. You might have to return it.

Fixed it and this was the solution thanks. I had the RAM installed in A1 and B1 instead of A2 and B2 (as recommended by the motherboard manual). Booted with default XMP settings and passed the Windows Memory Diagnostic. I feel dumb now.

If this was the issue he would be locked to the non XMP ram setting (although the board would say XMP was on) its more likely his motherboard or the 3100 isn’t supporting higher speeds
