What are you planning on getting exactly?聽

Also are you looking at an Intel cpu. Because 2933 is the official spec sheet before you technically overclock the imc. Though getting something above that is totally fine. As the imc will handle it.聽

XMP by definition is an overclocking technology. XMP is designed to make overclocking memory available to all.

8700K @ 5.2ghz 1.29V, 4x8 Rev.E @ 4040 13-20-20-39 1.7V.

Is there any particular reason you don鈥檛 want to overclock your memory? I, like most people, would really suggest it.

I know. Technically it is. Though in the real world it's pretty simple.聽

How complicated something is doesn't mean its overclocking or not. Anyone can overclock a 10900K to 5.3ghz for example, you just set it in the bios. Would that be a good 5.3ghz overclock though? No. Just like XMP is very easy to set, but XMP is a very bad memory overclock in technical terms.
