Also, if you need support from Intel/AMD and you've enabled XMP/DOCP and they want you to send diagnostic data or the like over, be sure to clear the CMOS (or just load factory defaults in BIOS).
hopey1809 I think you missed the point of this whole video. Yes, the K series Intel chips are unlocked. The point of this video was to point out that by overclocking any part of the CPU (XMP is essentially overclocking the memory controller on the CPU die), then you are voiding the warranty - especially so if you run the memory higher than the spec sheet for the CPU.
For some reason stupid UA-cam won't allow me to share their own video links and write a helpful caption for the audience, so check the link in reply for that overclocking policy video.
Such a timely video after that issue with Gamers Nexus and NZXT BLD regarding XMP voids warrenty. Thankfully, they sorted that out and NZXT changed their stance on the issue.
Just take out the motherboard's cmos battery and it'd just go to the default settings and then go for the warranty and if they asked just say "What is XMP?"
I see the new boss is workin' ya hard. Be sure to take a nap between episodes. As long as things are taken care of, a short nap for hard work isn't always frowned upon.
This, indeed, was a bit of a surprise recently. After enabling AMD's flavor of xmp the system wouldn't even boot in to the 'bios' anymore, that was greeeeat. In the process I learned way more about memory latency then I would have liked. Took some attempts to get it going. Later a bios update became available, with that updated it did run fine at the default 'xmp' profile. Looking the qualified vendor list would have prevented this.
I’m just really really glad a good friend of mine warned me of the qvl and the issues that comes with ram and cpu in the board. I hope more people who are new like me who wants to build the pc on their own will see this post. People Look for the QVL for you board, find RAM that supports both the board and the CPU series
I once bought a dual channel ram kit. One of them clocked correctly. The other was throttled for some reason. Decided to up the latter's speed to be the same and the former, since they were from the same kit. Started having blue screen errors every so often. Set speed back, no more blue screen. Went back to Microcenter and got the kit replaced.
I have an off-topic question, tho: What is the first thing that a hard DISK drive does/looks for when it's started up?

Do hdds first look at the file allocation table when started up?

3:15 My brother used to work as a testing engineer at Intel, his job was to test chips under extreme conditions and see how they degraded over time in order to create the specs they should actually be run at. He says they can tell if the CPU has been abused like that. They aren't putting them in a PC and just seeting if they post they have multi million dollar diagnostics machines where they stick the CPU in it shows the signals coming out if it (think an oscilloscope combined with a logic analyzer), they can even test it if it's non functional in a PC. It shows the waveforms of the TTL signals coming out of the chip and according to him they will show degradation (become less square and more distorted) over time if the chip is run outside temperature or voltage specs. And they can pretty much tell what was done to it based on what signals are distorted and in what way. They may or may not go to the bother of actually doing that but if they really want to they can tell.
As a Freshman Electronics engineer the Transient patterns can tell about wear and abuse very easily. BUT CPU manufacturers actually probably get so many RMA's from faulty hardware and from OEM test analysis queued up that I think they don't bother to deeply analyse every CPU to see if any clock boost was done
Riley you are the man! Whenever he is on, Techquickie, Techlinked, Technews, 400 more Linus monopoly channels I have to watch. James is a close second 😉
With other words: Just buy RAM kits that will use XMP or EXPO profiles only to match the supported spec of your CPU (AMD 7000: DDR5-5200MT/s; Intel 13th & 14th gen: DDR5-5600MT/s).
Well that's the best way i guess but people like me always think the higher the better and the more it cost the better but you're right sorta i mean if you get a new cpu for example ryzen 8000 in the future i bet it has more mhz for the cpu and you can put more mhz on it so if you would wanna more you would have to pay for new 2 or 4 ram sticks 🤷🏻
If you're really worried about running overclocked RAM, just check the maximum voltage of the CPU and buy overclocked memory with an XMP profile that doesn't require more than that voltage to run. That's what I did with my i7-4790K finding DDR3-2133 memory that only required 1.50 voltage.
Yup..... Intel denied my warranty on a 8700k due to running memory at 3000mhz on a 3400mhz kit.... I said I didn't bump it up but they were able to find out and were spot on...
They probably void the warranty because overclocking the RAM is actually overclocking the CPU, because the memory controller is physically on the CPU and XMP or DOCP draws more voltage through that controller. I've had 1 Ryzen 3200G burn out from this. It was fine for a Ryzen 1200, two ryzen 5 2600, and a ryzen 7 1700.
In most cases I believe enabling xmp shouldn't void your warranty, however there are those insane kits that do like 4600 MHz and motherboards will throw insane voltages to the vccsa and vccio like 1.5v.
Imagine putting up with months or even years of random BSoDs and general instability, only to find out the problem was being caused by XMP, since your board isn't good enough to run the RAM at it's rated speed.
In Brazil happened that if you send an email to intel warranty they will deny if you use XMP and say to you send again an email lying to them about XMP and then they will be able to do the warranty and all ads they do it's about overclock cpu and memory to sell this but if you do, you can't receive warranty. wait what?
It's like if lambo said their cars can go over 200 mph but most speed limits are way below. If someone were to ignore the speed limit and crash than it would be hard to get Lamborghini to pay the damages just because they advertised their cars could go that fast. It does make some sense. The cpu sets the speed limit and the just because the ram can go faster doesn't mean it should. So it's kinda like checking to make sure your motherboard can use a cpu, make sure your cpu can handle the max speed of the ram
I fried my 1st not-used motherboard from overclocking. (Thought I had killed my ram, bought more... and it still didn't work) A few adventures after that... I swore off overclocking. Maybe on an old PC for fun. But if I NEED to for my daily driver/gamer... then it's time to save for anew parts.
I don't think it is worth the risk. XMP doesn't make much difference in most games, and it generally means higher temps and less stability. So what's the point of it? What really boosts RAM performance is dual channel or quad channel mode. That's enough. I recently made a GPU upgrade and wanted to max out my PC. I had XMP enabled, but my system was not stable. Perhaps something was wrong with my MOBO - DIMMA2 and DIMMA3 died by themselves weeks later... What a mystery.
Same goes for phone manufacturers "Look, we made this phone really really waterproof. Oh, what? The waterproofing failed? Well we can't help you with that, we say "don't put in water" in the manual."
My laptop comes with 2666 DDR4 Ram, and the 10th gen intel CPU’s support 2933MHz ram, so I overclocked it to 2933 via the BIOS. I have not regretted doing it ever since. Do not be afraid to overclock your RAM guys, it is not dangerous as long as you don’t mess with the voltage.
This car can go 100 MPH!!!
(This vehicle is rated for speeds below 15 MPH. The manufacturer is not responsible for the damage caused by high speeds.)

There isn't a single video thta isn't sponsored. Nice!👍
When you overclock your ram, and it's so fast that you ramm into ram
With other words:
Just buy RAM kits that will use XMP or EXPO profiles only to match the supported spec of your CPU (AMD 7000: DDR5-5200MT/s; Intel 13th & 14th gen: DDR5-5600MT/s).
Well that's the best way i guess but people like me always think the higher the better and the more it cost the better but you're right sorta i mean if you get a new cpu for example ryzen 8000 in the future i bet it has more mhz for the cpu and you can put more mhz on it so if you would wanna more you would have to pay for new 2 or 4 ram sticks 🤷🏻

I will pair the upcoming Ryzen 9 9950X with a JEDEC ECC memory kit of 2x32GB DDR5-5600MT/s CL40 @1.1V.
If you're really worried about running overclocked RAM, just check the maximum voltage of the CPU and buy overclocked memory with an XMP profile that doesn't require more than that voltage to run. That's what I did with my i7-4790K finding DDR3-2133 memory that only required 1.50 voltage.
Thanks for the tech tips. Oh it is nice to see him without his glasses I have seen him wear in the past. Must switched to contacts.
Steve tested this the other day, 5x on phone and 5x online, had no issues with xmp warranty and called it a non story.
Whaat? So when i upgrade next year.. my ram might be slower than what the ram speed was on the store's website? hmmm.
Yup..... Intel denied my warranty on a 8700k due to running memory at 3000mhz on a 3400mhz kit.... I said I didn't bump it up but they were able to find out and were spot on...
A lot of these issues seems to be with people over clocking. If you want more speed just buy something faster by default
They probably void the warranty because overclocking the RAM is actually overclocking the CPU, because the memory controller is physically on the CPU and XMP or DOCP draws more voltage through that controller.
I've had 1 Ryzen 3200G burn out from this. It was fine for a Ryzen 1200, two ryzen 5 2600, and a ryzen 7 1700.
In most cases I believe enabling xmp shouldn't void your warranty, however there are those insane kits that do like 4600 MHz and motherboards will throw insane voltages to the vccsa and vccio like 1.5v.
Imagine putting up with months or even years of random BSoDs and general instability, only to find out the problem was being caused by XMP, since your board isn't good enough to run the RAM at it's rated speed.
In Brazil happened that if you send an email to intel warranty they will deny if you use XMP and say to you send again an email lying to them about XMP and then they will be able to do the warranty and all ads they do it's about overclock cpu and memory to sell this but if you do, you can't receive warranty. wait what?
How long before we can buy our "Techquickie 'til the End of Time" official t-shirts and merch?
It's like if lambo said their cars can go over 200 mph but most speed limits are way below. If someone were to ignore the speed limit and crash than it would be hard to get Lamborghini to pay the damages just because they advertised their cars could go that fast. It does make some sense. The cpu sets the speed limit and the just because the ram can go faster doesn't mean it should. So it's kinda like checking to make sure your motherboard can use a cpu, make sure your cpu can handle the max speed of the ram
I was about to boost my ram above my CPU's spec memory. Thnx for saving me.
Very good video, thanks a lot, regards!!
I fried my 1st not-used motherboard from overclocking. (Thought I had killed my ram, bought more... and it still didn't work)
A few adventures after that... I swore off overclocking. Maybe on an old PC for fun. But if I NEED to for my daily driver/gamer... then it's time to save for anew parts.
I don't think it is worth the risk. XMP doesn't make much difference in most games, and it generally means higher temps and less stability. So what's the point of it? What really boosts RAM performance is dual channel or quad channel mode. That's enough.
I recently made a GPU upgrade and wanted to max out my PC. I had XMP enabled, but my system was not stable. Perhaps something was wrong with my MOBO - DIMMA2 and DIMMA3 died by themselves weeks later... What a mystery.
You should hire this guy LTT
Them: overclocking your CPU will void your warranty!
Me: ha! I didn't even buy a warranty!
my i7 14700k is rated to run memory upto 5200mhz and my ram says 6000mhz when i eneabled xmp is it gonna harm my cpu or smthn?
That’s what I wanna know
I got a replacement DRAM from Team C. I know that this is about CPU warranty, but I just wanted to share the good news
Same goes for phone manufacturers "Look, we made this phone really really waterproof. Oh, what? The waterproofing failed? Well we can't help you with that, we say "don't put in water" in the manual."
my 2600k is still running @4.4Ghz on a 1867MHz XMP profile in extreme phase mode (since 2011)
i dont even understand what he’s talking about but these are fun to watch!
Love this Riley dude.
I got an ad before the video started with linus in it lol
That 'YES' was subtle.
My laptop comes with 2666 DDR4 Ram, and the 10th gen intel CPU’s support 2933MHz ram, so I overclocked it to 2933 via the BIOS. I have not regretted doing it ever since. Do not be afraid to overclock your RAM guys, it is not dangerous as long as you don’t mess with the voltage.
So its better to go i5 2500k for less but i have memory thats 1600mhz or i5 3770k but the memory is the same ? Which one to choose?
the burger on the right at 0:10 probably tastes waaay better than the one on the left
so if i have a r7 3700x .. ishuldnt wast my mony on 3600 ram and just buy 3200 ?
