XMP 3.0 Support
Just set and go. Programmed with the latest Intel XMP 3.0 profiles, the only thing between you and extreme performance is a simple setting. Additionally, XMP 3.0 enables two customizable user-defined profiles to be saved in the memory module via BIOS on supported motherboards, so your fine-tuned memory settings go wherever the modules go.
Pros: Speed, Looks, Build Quality, Samsung Modules.
Cons: Required BIOS update to work properly.
Overall Review: Using the 6000 36-36-36-76 1.30V profile with Intel 12700K on ASUS Prime-P Z690 Wifi with RTX 3090. This ram is flawless and fast. It failed immediately in memory tests when first installed. Turns out ASUS has some compatibility updates in newer versions and now it works perfectly using the XMP profile settings.
