Hyperx predator 2400 .How to use xmp?

[slyverine]

Hello there. My specs are:

mobo:Asus ROG formula viii
RAM:Hyperx Predator 2400
cpu: i7 6700k
vga: nvidia gtx 970
psu: corsair ax 860

So, my memory runs at it's default values, and i want to use xmp profile 1 to bring it to 2400. If i just select it it will just work, or i will have to OC my cpu as well?

I want to add also that i had some issues before with this memory, i had many blue screens when i 1st built it and memtest had errors at every second or so, but it was fixed with a bios update.

Make sure you have the latest BIOS, which may well fix somne if not all the issues. Then go into BIOS enable XMP and select profile 1
