RAM speed in GHz plus MoBio technology.
RAM speed in GHz plus MoBio technology.
I’m curious about how to phrase this in a concise way for Google. You’re asking about RAM speeds and what the manufacturer allows. You have an ASUS Crosshair viii dark hero with a claimed 5100GHz, using Corsair Pro 16x4 at 4000GHz. You tried boosting BIOS settings but got unstable shutdowns. You have 64GB total, four sticks, and want to know if removing two sticks could help push speeds higher. Are you looking for a simple answer or do you need more details?
Many RAM modules require significant effort to achieve optimal performance with the CPU's Integrated Memory Controller. This isn't typical. To reach maximum speed, you need to adjust BIOS settings and enable XMP. While this increases capacity, it also demands more processing power from the IMC. Swapping out two modules can boost speeds but might not improve actual bandwidth.
It supports up to 4000MT, but performance won’t increase much beyond 3600 unless you boost the Infinity Fabric. Give it a try with two sticks.
For a very high-speed RAM setup, boosting the voltage often improves stability. Is your system working well with DOCP active and memory running at 3733? Remember, memory speed isn't everything. With Ryzen processors, you should also raise the clock frequency to match. If your settings are under 3800, the system will lower the fclk automatically, but above that you’ll need to adjust it yourself; otherwise, latency will creep in and hurt performance.
xmp works with Intel, and d.o.c.p is a different model from AMD. When you enabled that setting, it auto-set to 4000, but it crashes when you change it to 3600 manually. Removing two RAM sticks might help reach 4000GHz, but it’s confusing how everything connects. Your question is clear—thank you for explaining!
