    Hello, when I set the bios for the ram XMP2, turn on the M14x, but it resets the bios and reset the parameter RAM for the default.

    How can I do to make the actual XMP2?

    But with the HyperX 1866Mhz PnP serves or is useless.

    thanks and Ciao :)

    perhaps with the HyperX 1866Mhz XMP2 not need to set, but I'll leave the question to those who are more experienced than me.

    Hi :)

    I don't think that this actually can be done for the PnP.
    As they're plug and play they automatically enforce the best possible setting?

    Hello, I saw that you also have 8GB HyperX 1866Mhz, I tried to set the bios XMP2 but when I save the M14x is reset the bios again and brings me back to the default profile.

    You did you do that or it is useless to XMP2.

    thanks

    Ciao :cool:
