1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:07,850
So, you're trying to shop for RAM and there's all these terms CL10 1333 MHz

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:09,280
1.65 volts.

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:14,960
All that stuff just needs to go away because we're going to tell you how XMP

4
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:18,960
makes your life a lot easier if you're using an Intel platform. Now, you can

5
00:00:17,199 --> 00:00:24,480
buy the highest performance memory in the world, but by default, motherboards

6
00:00:21,439 --> 00:00:27,039
will set it to a safe setting, a safe

7
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:30,720
profile that is guaranteed to boot by default. This is to ensure that you get

8
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:34,000
an opportunity to go into the motherboard BIOS and reconfigure things

9
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:39,920
manually if you need to because if it just doesn't turn on at all, then it's no good to anyone. However, once you're

10
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:43,600
in there, if you want to set it to run at its proper speed, at the rated

11
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:47,920
speeds, you can either dial everything in manually the way we used to, or you

12
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:52,399
can just set up an XMP profile. Most high performance memory comes with at

13
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:56,559
least one XMPP profile, sometimes two. And as long as your motherboard supports

14
00:00:53,920 --> 00:01:01,280
XMPP, which most of the performance grade Intel motherboards do, then it's

15
00:00:58,719 --> 00:01:05,600
as simple as dialing it in and all those settings are done for you. Within the

16
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:09,360
UEFI of your motherboard or the BIOS, it's usually very simple to find the

17
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:12,479
XMPP settings. But if you're not sure, you can always consult your manual. So,

18
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:16,479
it might be called extreme memory profile or XMP or memory profile. And

19
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:20,159
then you'll be able to scroll through something that'll say auto or and then

20
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:23,759
like profile one and profile two. and it'll actually give you a preview of

21
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:27,840
what it's going to run at before you press F10 to commit the changes and

22
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:32,400
reboot the computer. But the one thing to note about XMPP is

23
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:36,799
that if you fully populate all of the module slots on your motherboard, your

24
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:42,320
XMPP profiles might not be fine-tuned for that unless you buy a multi-dim kit.

25
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:47,040
So on this motherboard, for example, if we bought two two stickked kits and ran

26
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:51,840
it in XMPP, it might not work. Whereas if we bought one four stick kit, it

27
00:01:49,439 --> 00:01:54,960
would be guaranteed to work. As always guys, don't forget to subscribe to
