black screen after overclocking ram

I've recently built my pc with ryzen 3 3200g Alketron 16gb ram(3200mhz) and msi b450 a pro max II. so I can't even turn Axmp on and it shows a xmp not supported, but when I try to over clock my ram manually from 2400 mhz to 3000 or 3200 mhz. my cpu turns on but there's only black screen. and when I reset bios and then put 2666 instead of 3000 or 3200 mhz it works fine. 

what could be the root cause? motherboard or my ram is not good? 

tell me I'm stuck in this.

any little help would be appreciated.

I have never heard of Alketron memory.

For your 3200G I would recommend some G.Skill FlareX 3200 C14. I use this memory with my 3400G and it performs very well using XMP on an X370 board.

Make sure both your motherboard and CPU support the higher RAM speed. If you’re overlocking it to a speed that isn’t supported, it can cause issues such as this
