I recently assembled a computer and wanted to utilize 128GB of RAM because the motherboard can handle that amount. But after a long break, I realized I needed to verify the QVL on the motherboard first; it would only boot with 64GB. I purchased two sets of 32GB Corsair Dominator DDR5 RAM, each labeled as 5200MHz. My configuration includes: MSI MAG Tomahawk B650 Wifi RTX 3090TI and a 1500W PSU with AMD Ryzen™ 9 7950X. Can I adjust the BIOS to enable all four sticks? I’m currently limited to using just two sticks.

the system only shares data with two 32 gigabytes modules, not four. is this because xmp is turned on? also, do you really require 128 gigabytes of memory?

The issue with four DDR5 sticks may be related to outdated BIOS settings. Have you made any recent updates?

XMP is activated. It only sends data using 2 sticks of 32GB memory. I prefer 128 for future server setup.

Consider alternatives without XMP or with EXPO RAM support.
