SDL putting lots of pixel data onto the screen - c++

Question

I am creating a program that allows you to view fractals like the Mandelbrot or Julia set. I would like to render them as quickly as possible. I would love a way to put an array of uint8_t pixel values onto the screen. The array is formatted like this...
{r0,g0,b0,r1,g1,b1,...}
(A one dimensional array or RGB color values)
I know I have the proper data because before I just set individual points and it worked...
for(int i = 0;i < height * width;++i) {
//setStroke and point are functions that I made that together just draw a colored point
r.setStroke(data[i*3],data[i*3+1],data[i*3+2]);
r.point(i % r.window.w,i / r.window.w);
}
This is a pretty slow operation especially if the screen is big (which I would like it to be)
Is there any faster way to just put all the data onto the screen.
I tried doing something like this
void* pixels;
int pitch;
SDL_Texture* img = SDL_CreateTexture(ren,
SDL_GetWindowPixelFormat(win),SDL_TEXTUREACCESS_STREAMING,window.w,window.h);
SDL_LockTexture(img, NULL, &pixels, &pitch);
memcpy(pixels, data, window.w * 3 * window.h);
SDL_UnlockTexture(img);
SDL_RenderCopy(ren,img,NULL,NULL);
SDL_DestroyTexture(img);
I have no idea what I'm doing so please have mercy
Edit (thank you for comments :))
So here is what I do now
SDL_Texture* img = SDL_CreateTexture(ren, SDL_PIXELFORMAT_RGB888,SDL_TEXTUREACCESS_STREAMING,window.w,window.h);
SDL_UpdateTexture(img,NULL,&data[0],window.w * 3);
SDL_RenderCopy(ren,img,NULL,NULL);
SDL_DestroyTexture(img);
But I get this Image... which is not what it should look like
I am thinking that my data is just formatted wrong, right now it is formatted as an array of uint8_t in RGB order. Is there another way I should be formatting it (note I do not need an alpha channel)
