Thanks for the information; does the XMG BIOS support XMP to be enabled?

 

I am asking because my current Sager BIOS does not have a 'XMP enabled' option. For reference, I have listed below the information on my Sager BIOS for my: Sager NP9672M-G0 (Clevo X170KM-G) [Intel i9-10850K (10C/20T]; along with an image of it.

BIOS(/laptop) manufacturer: Sager BIOS

BIOS make: Insyde

BIOS model: InsydeH2

BIOS version: 1.07.04LS1

KBC (Keyboard Controller)/EC (Embedded Controller) Version: 1.07.02

ME (Management Engine) FW (Firmware) Version: 15.0.21.1549

 

Sager BIOS - Insyde InsydeH2 BIOS - v1.07.04LS1:

Sager-NP9672-M-G0-Clevo-X170-KM-G-Intel-

 

That is great to hear that you're testing 4x32GB DDR4 32000MHz CL20 in your X170SM-G.

It's also good to hear that 4x16GB (64 GB) DDR4 32000MHz CL20 runs without problems in your other X170SM-G; thanks for the info.

For reference, I will also be testing: 32GB DDR4 3200 MHz CL20; in my Sager NP9672M-G0 (Clevo X170KM-G) [Intel i9-10850K (10C/20T] laptop using: Kingston Fury Impact (2x32GB variation 1) [KF432S20IBK2/64]; first at 2x32GB (64 GB) then at 4x32GB (128 GB).

 

The first link and second link refer to the same SO-DIMM: Mushkin Enhanced Redline (2x32GB) [MRA4S320GJJM32GX2]. Note, the CAS Latency (CL) for this SO-DIMM is 16, but the individual timings are: 16-18-18-38; hence both the 16 and 18 figures referenced. For reference, the specifications for this SO-DIMM can be seen from the SO-DIMM link listed in my previous post by clicking on the 'Specs' tab in the middle of the page linked. For reference, this link has been relisted below.

What is 'IMC'?

 

That's great to hear that 4x32GB DDR4 3200MHz CL20 RAM (Kingston) works in your X170SM-G. In looking over your images, it appears to confirm that the: Kingston Fury Impact (2x32GB variation 1) [KF432S20IBK2/64]; is dual rank; as your part number (KF3200C20S4/32GX) matches my part number.

Also in looking over the images, it looks like your laptop specifically is the zTecPC X170SM-G with PremaMod BIOS?

I am asking because I had heard that the zTecPC X170KM-G was supposed to have the PremaMod BIOS; although, I don't know if that BIOS mod was ever released. Does anyone know if the zTecPC X170KM-G Prema BIOS mod was ever released?

 

Thanks for the picture. I don't see that option in my Sager BIOS (InsydeH20 version 1.07.04LS1), so I don't think my BIOS supports/has 'XMP enabled' as an option.

 

Thanks for the guidance and luck; I followed the guidance and was able to complete the installation. 🙂

I'm happy to report that I successfully installed the: Kingston Fury Impact (2x32GB variation 1) [KF432S20IBK2/64]; in to my: Sager NP9672M-G0 (Clevo X170KM-G) [Intel i9-10850K (10C/20T]; laptop. For context, the BIOS in my laptop is the: Sager BIOS (InsydeH20 version 1.07.04LS1).

For reference, I have listed below the CPU-Z images for this laptop memory.

I also came across this helpful YouTube video showing how to change the two back SO-DIMM memory modules on a X170KM-G; I've linked this video below as a reference for others.

Thanks for the Amazon review; it is informative and appreciated.

Were you ever able to get XMP to be enabled on your X170KM-G (11th gen)? If so, how? Did you have to use a specific BIOS brand/version?

 

Thank you for the feedback on the: Crucial Ballistix 3200 MHz CL16 kit 2x16GB (32GB) [BL2K16G32C16S4B] modules; currently, I am only looking for SO-DIMM memory at: 32000MHz and 32 GB; single module with CL ratings less than CL22.

Does Crucial have a SO-DIMM memory module at: 3200 MHz 32GB (1x32GB) with a CL less than 22?

What laptop brand and what BIOS is your X170SM-G?

For context, it is my understanding that both the: X170SM-G and X170KM-G; at stock BIOS (from Clevo) do not support XMP. If this is not the case; please let me know.

 

My X170SM-G is from zTecpc and has the Premamod BIOS. I don't think the stock Clevo BIOS supports XMP either, just custom ones directly from specific vendors.

 

I don't think Crucial has a 32 GB SODIMM with a CAS latency less than 22. The only low latency kits I've seen have been from those with 16 GB or 8 GB modules.

And question for guru - i have 2 displays for x170KM , its 4k b173zan01 60hz perfect display UHD, and perfect 300HZ Full HD b173han05. Which is better? I can't decide which one is better. 

Can anyone write the advantages and disadvantages of both and which one you would choose for yourself.

Thanks

It is relative,y easy… 4k better for everything but hardcore gaming, most specially FPS games… 4k far better from evey prespective, and for all around gaming with 60hz gsync is great. For quick games, multiplay fps it sucks 🙂
