Question XMP Profile for ASUS C621E

[flashbond]

Hi,

Does C621E SAGE have any XMP-like feature since Xeon Platinium processors support 2933MHz memory?

Thanks.

EDIT:
Apparently it has. But on the manual it says:
"* 2933MHz will drop to 2666MHz when using 2DPC configurations."

What is a 2DPC configuration? What does it mean?

2DPC = Two DIMMs per channel.

So, in single channel mode, you can utilize 2933MHz but, if using dual channel, you're maxed out at 2666MHz.

Thanks for the answer. I can see your point but this is a six-channel memory motherboard per cpu. What does 2DPC mean in this case?

In other words, briefly, what should DIMM configuration be for this motherboard in order to maximize the memory by using 2933MHz modules?

With this motherboard, it doesn't really mean anything, as there board can only accommodate One DIMM per Channel.

However, note that while the Xeon's 'support' up to 2933MHz, the board(s) themselves may limit that.
