Hello, I have an intel motherboard DP55WB. Recently i just upgraded my ram to 16gb of Corsair Vengeance at 1600mhz. Online the site tells me that my mobo only supports up to 1333mhz and that "DDR3 1600 or higher memory support on this motherboard requires compatible XMP enabled memory or advanced knowledge of BIOS and manual memory tuning. Individual results may vary." I don't quite understand this statement. I'm pretty sure that its asking me to overclock but i'm not sure how to in this mobo's bios and what XMP enabled memory is. Here't the link: http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/DP55WB/sb/CS-030682.htm#tested, scroll up to where it has a box that says tested and the quote is right under it
