EZ XMP switch on my mobo

[StealthNinja]

My Asus z270a Prime has an XMP switch that I only realized today. I have xmp enabled in the bios so will anything happen if I turn the switch on?

If you have it enabled, what's the point of messing with the switch? If you're still curious, check your manual, but in general, if it isn't broken and everything works as you want, don't mess with it.

I was just wondering if enabling it in the bios and using the switch does the same thing.

Yes it does the same thing, but it takes precedence I think over whatever you set manually in bios. I'd think you'd have to first specify what it ups your memory to (which profile preset it picks), otherwise I wouldn't trust it to pick a safe frequency right off the bat.
In any case if you've done this manually in bios already, it's pointless.

OK thanks. I won't mess with it.
