You are welcome midimusicman79 but some clarification is needed as it is the CPU that is the deciding factor when it come to the RAM speed and not the MB, as to why is explained in my canned info below;
Something to keep in mind for the future, a CPU must be compatible with a MB whereas the RAM has to be compatible with both the CPU and the MB, this because a MB can be compatible with faster CPUs than the one in your list of parts and MB manufacturers often state RAM speeds that far exceed that which any compatible CPU can handle, this is misleading at the least or dishonest at worst
XMP basically gives the end user what they have already paid for albeit without the said end user having to change and save settings manually.
