Greetings,
I'm little bit puzzled about newest generation RAM support. I know that people can get it to advertised speeds with XMP. What I do not understand is how such speeds are supported by CPU. The best available CPU, i9-12900Ks at the moment supports up to DDR5 4800 MT/s. However, you can easily find DDR5 RAM with speeds up to 6400 MT/s. How I'm supposed to use this RAM if existing technology does not support it? Obviously there is more to it and I would like to know why specified CPU RAM support is seemingly detached from reality.
