3600mhz/s ram only shows 2400mhz/s

I recently upgraded my system with 32GB of 3600MHz RAM. After installing it, I checked Task Manager and AIDA to ensure everything ran smoothly. However, I noticed the RAM is only running at 2400MHz.

Thinking it might be a one-time issue, I tested my old 16GB kit (rated at 3200MHz), and to my surprise, it also only runs at 2400MHz.

I've tried everything I could think of in the BIOS – enabling XMP/DOCP, adjusting settings manually, and double-checking for any overlooked options – but nothing seems to work.

I’m out of ideas now and would appreciate any suggestions or insights on what might be causing this and how to get the RAM running at its correct speed.
