Does razer blade 17 2021 have xmp support?

VenetianRedrushbox708On the Razer Blade 17 store page it says "MEMORY: 16GB DDR4 3200MHz dual-channel memory (slotted)". Surely they can't advertise their RAM to be running at 3200 if it doesn't actually? In my new Mid-2021 Razer 17 it was running at 800mhz DDR (1600mhz total), which is crazy low. I've messaged support and they're going to replace it, but it's still very bizarre. Hey good point!! It's strange though because when I messaged support about my laptop they told me this: "The compatible RAM model for your laptop is DDR4-2933MHz. Using another model will cause your system to malfunction. If a component gets damaged at any point of the installation process, the resulting system damage will not be covered by your standard or extended warranty. Additionally, any replacement or non-issued components from Razer (such as the upgraded/replacement storage or memory) is not covered by Razer. Only hardware provided by Razer, is covered by your standard or extended warranty. Any da

Does razer blade 17 2021 have xmp support?

.Z4x.Hmm... interesting... that's the exact kit I'm looking at for my second attempt. Have you had a chance to test those? Would you recommend them? I can confirm that Crucial's Ballistix kit runs at only 2666MHz in the 2021 Blade 15. As for XMP support coming back, given the categoric tone of "Blades do not support XMP", in the support emails I had received, I wouldn't hold my breath for such a BIOS update. Sorry for the late response. For some odd reason the Razer notifications kept hitting my spam folder. Thats too bad that the Crucial Ballistix kit runs only at 2666MHz.......even though this is 2021...... So a couple of things I have to make note here: - previously in my 2021 Blade 17 Pro RTX 3070 QHD laptop, the initial 16 GB of RAM (2x 8GB chips) were reported as running at 2933 MHz - when I took it apart to extract the initial RAM chips I noticed that they said "Forza DDR4 SODIMM 8GB 3200 CL22, NMSO480E82-3200EA00"........and I was thinking to myself that I always thou

Does razer blade 17 2021 have xmp support?

Hello @webmich ! Interesting thread. I did not even think about XMP when looking around for RAM chip upgrades. I suppose I should have a look at my bios version as well. I have the same laptop as yours - Blade Pro 17" 3070-QHD. I got mine pre-ordered back in March. Where did you go to find your RAM chip upgrades? I tried asking support for compatible RAM chip types, but all they told me was "DDR4-2933MHz" with no mention of CL timing or voltage. I just found my Bios version (search "System Information") - 1.01 with a date of Jan. 5th, 2021. I found some people with Razers reporting excellent compatibility with these RAM chips, but they are now no longer available - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084929MWL Kingston has an updated pair of RAM chips here, but I don't know if it will work - https://www.amazon.com/Kingston-FURY-3200MHz-KF432S20IBK2-64-dp-B097QK6M3W Your thoughts?
