I bought an AMD EXPO kit without realising and I’m wondering if the kit will run at 5200MHz and if XMP would work. The motherboard I’ve ordered is an MSI MAG TOMAHAWK Z790 WIFI DDR5 and the CPU is an i5 13600k.
Really low ddr5 speed tbh. The only time you might have problems with the opposing team’s default overclock profile is up in the 6400+ range, I’ve found.
I have the corsair vengeance 64gb 4x16gb 6600mhz 32-39-39-76 4 dimm kit overclocked to 7400mhz stable with 13900k and msi z790 ace
It literally states it will run at 5200 at the top right.
if it supports expo, chances are it’ll support xmp. those are mostly just “official certifications” from amd/intel
Yes, just enable XMP in BIOS
Ive got it all sorted! Turns out my motherboard has a setting in the bios to allow using iEXPO even tho it is an Intel board. Thanks MSI!!!
Why go slow ddr5 lol
It’s best to check mobo’s Qualified Vendor List. Even then, running beyond CPU speed could potentially end the CPU’s life prematurely. Ask me how I know
