xmp

[roger_37]

do i need to enable this in bios for my pc,if im going to play games,knob question but i dont know?

You need to enable it to use full speed of memory and not handicap CPU's performance.
Bettet just make sure that there's specified voltage set for memory.
If BIOS tries to force XMP speed, but doesn't take correct voltage spec there might be problems in getting PC to boot.

not sure if my board supports xmp,thanks

Called DOCP or something on the AMD boards mate.

thanks im learning all the time.

it does i have the B350 tomahawk max so older board and it supports it.

however i would recommend updating to the latest BIOS first.

i have ver 3.10,bios i think.

i have ver 3.10,bios i think.

is worth upgrading to ver 3.50 i have 3.10,also has anyone used msi live update6 to flash bios?

 

[roger_37]

I personally would never update the bios from within Windows, always do it through the bios directly

i dont realy want to disconnect components inside comp to do m-flash

Bios gets flashed via a USB memory stick in the back of the PC?

thanks ,will have to read up how to do it ...will be my first flash

Excellent

thank you.

No worries

It's a much safer way to flash a BIOS, through Windows can bork your board so best avoided if possible.

im having the same trouble with msi gaming laptop, in uefi bios it says wrong image size,cant work it out.
