Can't fully use my RAM

I have 2x8 3600MHz RAM on this motherboard and when I try to enable the XMP profile to speed it up from the default (2667MHz) to full speed increase, she refuses to publish. I can get up to 3200MHz RAM from the control center, but that's about it. Hoping for a BIOS update soon, it might be worth the wait if you're planning on RAM faster than 3200MHz. not 10 and under. That's why I can't get full memory speed since I have 10700k. If you want to overclock both of these aspects on a 10th Gen Intel processor, get the z490 or the same b560 board from ASRock, which actually supports 10th Gen overclocking and wish the specs were a little clearer . Otherwise a very solid motherboard
