Intel® Extreme Memory Profile (Intel® XMP) and Overclock RAM
The Intel® Extreme Memory Profile
Intel® Extreme Memory Profile (Intel® XMP) allows you to overclock RAM including compatible DDR3/DDR4 memory to perform beyond standard specifications. It’s designed to enhance the gaming features built into Intel® technology–based PCs. If you like to overclock and squeeze as much performance from your gaming PC as possible, then RAM based on Intel® XMP gives you that extra edge you need to dominate—without breaking a sweat.1
How Intel® XMP Works
Predefined and tested Intel® XMP profiles can be loaded via BIOS or a specific tuning application through a computer’s operating system. Often the easiest way to load Intel® XMP profiles is using a tuning utility, which may be available depending on the particular board manufacturer. To learn whether a tuning utility is available on your system, you should contact the board manufacturer.

Features |
Benefits |
|---|---|
Multiple Serial Presence Detect (SPD) profiles |
Enables preset or user-defined memory profiles that can be selected depending on usage model. For example, an aggressive, low-latency profile could be used during intense gaming, while the default memory setting can be used for everyday home computing, such as home office or web browsing. |
Memory vendor-specific SPD fields |
Enables memory module suppliers to program their own capabilities and provide unique value to end users. |
Easy overclocking (novice) |
Enables end users to easily overclock their platforms by selecting the appropriate profile instead of adjusting individual parameters in BIOS. Reselecting the default profile resets the platform to default setting. |
Advanced overclocking (intermediate/expert users) |
Expert users can manually change specific SPD parameters in the BIOS and save the profiles (platform/BIOS specific). |
Fail-safe default boot |
“First boot” with default JEDEC setting on a platform that supports DDR3/DDR4 standard JEDEC specification (your standard DDR3/DDR4 memory frequencies), ensuring base functionality. Then, user can enter BIOS and manually change settings or use the Windows*-based Intel® Extreme Tuning Utility. |
