Question How to set RAM to XMP on Z790 Hero?

[Antisthenes]

Should I set it to XMP 1 or XMP 2 when only using the pc for gaming? And is there anything else I also need to change in bios when enabling XMP? It’s a Kingston Renegade 7200mhz.

Believe or not, "for gaming" usually benefits of faster RAM more than for other uses. There's no harm in using faster RAM so set it for XMP2.

Ok, thanks

DDR5 should be XMP2 anyway. DDR4 should be XMP1.

Not sure why the above post implies that XMP2 is universally "faster" which is not the case.
