Hello people!
I have a Z270X motherboard which supports XMP 1, but I'm considering getting 32GB 3200mhz XMP 2.0 memory. So my question is; will the new memory work with XMP on my motherboard?

Model of your motherboard? Gigabyte have a number of Z270X's. Do you have a link to the ram you want to purchase? It's a good idea to list your full system's specs so we can fully gauge your system's potential.
The motherboard is the Gigabyte Z270X-Gaming K5. It says it's XMP ready and supports RAM speeds up to 3866mhz.
Intel Core i7-7700K
MSI Geforce RTX 2070 Super
Cooler Master G650M PSU
It’s the HyperX Fury DDR4 3200mhz 32GB kit I’m considering. CL16.
