I have the CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 kit. Why do we need to RMA if you say it will be fixed in an upcoming BIOS update? Is there something wrong with the kits?

I updated my Maximus VIII Ranger today with the latest BIOS, 1102. My corsair memory still won't boot on XMP. The BIOS release notes just said improved stability.

Crickets for a while now...really feel like I wasted my money on this 3200 memory when all it will boot at is 2133.

It happens with all of the BIOS versions. 0401, 0801, and the current version, 1001. I'm running 1001 right now.

My kit is: CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 DDR4 Gen 6 i5/7 153203200267920 DDR4 Gen 6 i5/7 153203200267921 v 4.23

I'm having the exact same issues with the Asus Maximus VIII Ranger and the CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 kit. Very frustrating. I contacted Asus, they asked for some details, I replied, and never heard from them again. As soon as I enable XMP and reboot, the system doesn't POST and I see error 55 on the on-board LED. The only timings that work are Auto @ 2133. I feel like I wasted money on the more expensive Corsair RAM.
