#can the 13400 limit my ram speeds

I know first gen memory controllers and stuff can be unstable and such but I just bought a new ram (ddr5) kit that I made sure was compatible with my motherboard via model number and it still does not run at advertised speeds (6000 cl30) with XMP I and II and I’m starting to think it’s because I have a 13400 but I might be wrong so I want to ask to see if anyone knows the answer. Oh btw it runs at 4000 MHz instead of 6000.

does your xmp profile support it?

#

but i don't think you should really pair 6000MHz ram with a 13400f

#

dang

wide sigil
#

I can manually set it to 4800

queen whale
#

whats your mobo

wide sigil
#

Rog strix b760i

#

I made sure my ram kit was supported with model number then copy and pasting into the mobo websites thing

I had it to XMP 2 100:100 1:2 6000mhz

nope

#

I haven’t tried under 5600

#

because I always assumed it would stay 4800 no matter what

#

I gotta do something I will be back though

#

if its a CPU limit, don't be disappointed you wouldn't've gotten much difference putting 6000mhz ram on a 13400f anyway, just save it for your future upgrades.

#

this is just confusing, it shouldn't be limited at all, but somehow it is? something wrong, mobo is fine

#

the cpu shouldn't limit the XMP speeds, but it does idk

#

try different XMP profiles.

someone in another server told me to take a picture of the ihs of it to find out sometbing

queen whale
#

I think its the serial

#

hol on

wide sigil
#

alright

queen whale
#

no reason to do it either

wide sigil
#

So I should just try 5000 but if it doesn’t work just try to do 4800

wide sigil
#

since it reads as 4000 in the os

#

alright

#

Tbh ima just keep applying until it stops at some point

#

As long as it’s as fast or faster than ddr4 3600 cl18 in gaming I don’t really mind much

queen whale
#

whats the ram manufacturer btw?

#

vengeance?

#

seems to be cpu limited tbh

wide sigil
queen whale
#

yeah then its a cpu issue I believe

#

cuz nobody tried to use 6000 on a 13400 you're going too far

wide sigil
#

i figured

#

I would return my 13400 and get a 12600k instead but if There is little to none performance gains from that I don’t really want to

#

I will just keep the ram kit and use it for future upgrades

queen whale
#

just totally overkill for a 13400

wide sigil
#

alright I will try 5000

queen whale
#

whats your gpu btw

wide sigil
#

a770

wide sigil
#

Plus that’s like 296 usd

queen whale
wide sigil
#

eh

#

I should@be fine tbh

queen whale
#

yep

wide sigil
#

5000 worked

#

no ami error screen after applying it took me straight to windows

#

didint check task manager tho

👍

wide sigil
#

I’m just gonna keep going until the Ami screen or the yellow ram light goes on

wide sigil
#

Got it to run a 5200mhz stable

#

also I am now considering returning my 13400 for the 13600kf as it’s only 259 usd now
