Struggling to achieve the claimed 3200MHz on memory despite enabling XMP?
Struggling to achieve the claimed 3200MHz on memory despite enabling XMP?
I believe my challenge isn't one I've faced before and it likely has an easy fix. As someone new with the PC, I noticed my 16GB (2x8) Corsair Vengeance Pro wasn't set to run at 3200MHz. After watching several online guides I managed to reach 2667MHz, but the option for 3200MHz wasn't available. I'm unsure if the issue lies with the DRAM voltage or something else I didn't consider. I thought it would be better to post a request and ask for advice from more experienced users. Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be really helpful!
Specs: CPU - i3 10100F, Motherboard - H510 A Pro, RAM - 2x8 Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR4 at 3200MHz, GPU - GTX 960 (potential RTX 2060 soon), Power Supply - 500BQ EVGA
Per your instructions, here’s a revised version:
Check page 3 of your guide. The note indicates you’re using a 10th generation processor. An 11th generation CPU is required for optimal performance at 3200. This is the maximum speed achievable with a 10th gen unit.
Intel is clearly organizing its product range. The positive point is that high-speed RAM isn't as crucial for Ryzen models compared to other systems.
