Hi all,
I know this is a well covered topic, but I have a few tailored questions of my own regarding RAM.
I have just bought my first self build project, due this weekend;
I5 6600k, asus rog maximus hero viii z170, corsair vengeance 3000mhz, GTX 980ti sea hawk.
I didnt intend to over clock straight away (however I did plan to down the line) and through slight poor research iv just realised that the ram I bought would mean I am technically ocing straight away due to an xmp profile I would need to run for the ram to run at advertised speeds. I know this seems like a waste of money but My question is,
A. Do I have to run this ram at the advertised speeds for it to be safe/ stable
And B. What are the implications if I do run an xmp profile?
Thanks
Matt
