    XMP changed cpu clock speed?

    This issue seems to only occur when the ram is set to 1600MHz (can't set it to 1866 so I don't know what happens there). When the ram is set to 1333MHz (the non-XMP option) the issue goes away and clock speed varies normally.

    XMP changed cpu clock speed?

    No, my CPU is not overclocked. CPU-Z shows a multiplier of 8-39 but the clock speed never dips below 3.9GHz and the voltage never goes below 1.15v even in safe mode.

    what will enabling XMP do?

    I recently noticed that my DDR3 ram is only running at 666MHz when it supposedly supports 1600MHz. A quick google search of the issue revealed that to get the full speed of 1600MHz i must enable a feature in my BIOS called XMP. However I have a few questions about XMP that I could not find the...
