Can't run at 3600Mhz

So I turned on XMP mode and my games keeps crashing.

PC Specs:

MSI MPG x570 Gaming Plus

G. Skill Trident Z Neo 16GB 3600mhz (2x8)

AMD Ryzen 7 3700X

MSI RTX 2080 Super Gaming Trio

Seasonic Focus 750w Gold Modular

Its all running fine with 3400mhz below. 

Right now im using 3200mhz with 18-18-18-18-38 timings. Is that good or should I just downgrade to another 3200mhz?

I have tried the ff things:

-XMP on, manually set the voltage to 1.35v (i tried it from 1.45v)

-Manually changing the timings + voltage

-Manually changing the dram freq + voltage 

-Downgrading to 1 version of bios (not beta)

I'm pretty sure that Ryzen 7 3700X can handle 3600mhz right?

I'm sure there are several memory kits rated by MSI to run at 3600mhz or higher on their QVL list for that motherboard, but I will use an oft quoted chart from Techpowerup on their Ryzen 3900X memory scaling benchmark, and tight timings trump faster speeds.
