the bios is hiding the XMP setting because it hasn't been enabled.

The memory kit you're employing only displays JEDEC specifications, and the motherboard can't recognize any XMP profile.

Sure, I'd be happy to clarify. Could you provide more details about what you're confused about?

XMP allows boosting memory performance, but it needs a fixed base clock to function. Those fixed numbers come from JEDEC standards, which define DDR specifications. The memory module is set to run at 1600 CL10 regardless of whether XMP is turned on or off.

I was surprised to learn that achieving 1600MHz with DDR3 required XMP support on my DDR4 modules to reach 32000MHz. I assumed all DDR3 sticks came with an XMP profile, but it seems not everyone does. Still, my RAM is running at its advertised speed.

There is indeed a 3200MT/s JEDEC standard for DDR4, meaning some kits work without enabling XMP to reach that speed. This feature is rare outside of servers and laptops, though it does exist and is utilized. Typically, most kits I've tested support up to 1333MT/s in their JEDEC settings, but newer models like the one you mentioned use the 1600MT/s configuration exclusively.

That's helpful information. I created this i7 4790 non-gaming setup for fun, and it was the quickest memory I could locate.
