Question How To Find Out Motherboards Max RAM Speed Capability?

[NathW90]

Hi all,

I'm currently using 16GB HyperX Fury 3733mt/s DDR4 RAM, and am considering upgrading to 32GB Corsair Vengeance Pro SL 4000mt/s RAM, which also has lower CL timing.

My question is, how do I find out for certain that my motherboard is capable of utilising the full 4000? Currently my RAM is set to the 3733mt/s using the XMP profile in the BIOS settings - and I can see this is working as it should using CPU-Z - but I'm not sure how to find out if it can do 4000?

It's an HP OMEN Intel Z690 motherboard.

Cheers!

seriously doubt you'll notice any performance improvement unless the timings are significantly lower.

are you just having an issue with lack of available RAM?
then a 32GB(2x 16GB) kit would possibly be worth it.
if you could find a cheaper, even lower latency 3600 kit it would be an even better option.
