It says nothing about XMP profiling in the motherboards manual, although when you hover over "advanced memory settings" in the bios it says "use to set XMP profiles etc" but when i go into that there is nothing about setting an XMP profile.

I tried looking up videos but the only ones i could find had a different BIOS

My RAM is 2666mhz and only able to run at 2133mhz hence needing to fix this issue

Thanks guys

as long as you didnt get a K cpu you're fine, 2666Mhz ram are usually only a very few dollars more than the 2133Mhz ram, and the performance difference in most tasks are negligible, minimal at best, and nothing you would usually notice
