EXPO has wrong settings after installing new RAM

I installed some RAM: 32gb 6400 32-39-39-102 in an MSI motherboard.

Turn on EXPO. Good

Now I've replaced it with 64gb 6000 30-40-40-96.

And EXPO is still set to the previous 6400 32 settings. Is there a way to reset it or otherwise get it to use correct settings for the new RAM?

It turns out the RAM, although it said AMD Expo, wasn't compatible with my MSI motherboard. It worked but Expo didn't. While a near identical 6000 with slightly different timings was compatible, and worked without any issue. So I suggest anyone check their motherboard compatibility list for exact model #'s. I didn't realize it was that particular.

I'd do a clear CMOS. You may also be able to just "Load Optimized Defaults".
