I disabled the CSM in my motherboard and now the RAM operates faster.
I purchased the 8X4 trident z neo kit expecting a 3600 output, but it consistently limited itself to 3200 even with XMP settings. After disabling CSM and re-enabling the auto-XMP feature, it suddenly started working properly.
It may have traded faster RAM performance for broader compatibility, as CSM enhances support for older operating systems and legacy BIOS versions.
It's strange when I restart CSM and open Windows 10 right away—it freezes instantly, showing only the base RAM speed and XMP remains at 3200.
I was running two operating systems at once. Now I’m turning it off since I don’t need it anymore.
