Artifacts/Instability with 8600G

I don't know where to go with this. I have an AMD 8600G paired with an ASRock B650M Pro RS wifi motherboard and GSkill Expo 6000 RAM. Whenever I attempt to overclock my memory, I get display artifacts or various issues. They include pixelation, network card disconnects, and black screens. The pixelation increases linearly with RAM speed. I cannot even run at 5200mhz which the processor is rated for. Running Memtest64 on anything other than Jedec 4800mhz causes random artifacts to appear on the display. These appear in games as well until the screen turns black and the PC needs to be rebooted. It's a real shame as the performance of the APU is greatly improved with memory speeds.

 

Am I just stuck at stock timing speeds or is this something that be corrected with a future update? I'm currently running the most up to date divers and BIOS.

 

Thank you for your help!

Does AMD also respond to these forums? I still haven't found an answer to this problem from them anywhere. Do you think it is a case of activating the warranty? Or is it not a manufacturing problem if everything is normal in 5200?

 MongooseProXC, here are the AMD specifications for your processor's memory:

2x1R DDR5-5200
2x2R DDR5-5200
4x1R DDR5-3600
4x2R DDR5-3600

 You did not post your memory configuration. John.
