Keep in mind that for my 5950X I had to buy Micron Rev E 16Gbit x8 due based DIMMs, rated 3200CL22, running 3600CL18. I.e., they just don't ship with XMP preset

Overclock it yourself. It's not that hard.
- Arnavion 3y agoThe advantage of buying RAM with XMP presets is that the reseller who created the preset has tested the sticks with that overclock and binned the original chips accordingly. When you buy RAM that is only rated for the default speed (as ECC server RAM is), you have no guarantee that all sticks will overclock the same amount, so in the worst case one stick will bring all the other sticks down to its level.
- namibj 3y agoRunning at that speed with that little voltage implied good speed binning, though. Also I tried to get factory-OC'd RAM, but couldn't find any 32G sticks with ECC.
