Recommendation: 64GB kit @ 3200MHz for Blade 15 (2021)

.Z4x.Wow! I'm honestly surprised that Razer would swap a fully functional laptop based on the output from possibly buggy software. Or, perhaps, they've run CPU-Z on other units of the same model, and they know it's not a bug... I don't know. In any case, I've ran both on my Blade and I posted the results in the other thread... Heck... I'll fire it up again, and post a few screenshots... I pretty obvious difference between HWiNFO and CPU-Z is that the former reports a command rate of 2T, while the latter only 1T. I think that's enough to explain the difference, but I'd be very interested to hear theories as to **WHY** that happens and which one is correct. Thanks so much for these screenshots, I really apprecaite it. It does help narrow things down. Looking at the timings table in CPU-Z here it certainly looks like you have XMP running. I think mine (Razer 17 mid-2021) just said JEDEC for all 4. Hard to say for sure because all the screenshots were on the laptop which is now i

Does razer blade 17 2021 have xmp support?

From what I understand, this is where we are (please someone correct me if I'm wrong on any of this): -Razers *do* support XMP, but not "officially" (support seems to insist they do not). -It can be achieved by flashing earlier BIOS 1.01 -The new 2021 Razer 17 advertises 3200mhz RAM, which suggests these new 2021 Razers might be running 3200mhz *without* utilising XMP (given that razer insist they do not support XMP)? -My Razer 17 had CPU-Z showing a clock speed of 800mhz, but the notebookcheck.com review of the same laptop also had this, and nothing was mentioned in the review - perhaps this is a CPU-Z bug rather than an actual reading. BIOS showed 3200mhz, HWinfo showed 1600mhz. XMP did not appear anywhere in any of the RAM checks I did. BIOS had no mention of XMP whatsoever. -I'm still very confused. Any users willing to run CPU-Z or HWinfo on their machines and post screenshots would be massively appreciated.

.Z4x.I don't normally use either Windows or CPU-Z; so, it's hard to say. I might boot to Windows, install CPU-Z, and check when I get the time... That would be very helpful. I'm very curious as to how Razer can advertise 3200mhz RAM that clocks at 800mhz. When I messaged support they just decided to replace the laptop, but the notebookcheck.com review also has the same 800mhz clock speed. I'll see when the new laptop gets here but I expect it'll be exactly the same. Very difficult to understand what's going on.

.Z4x.I got that Kingston Fury kit (64GB @ 3200MHz) and it clocks in at 3200MHz on my Blade. That looks great, good to know. My Razer 17 also showed 3200mhz in BIOS but in windows, CPU-Z reported the running clock speed at 800mhz. How does your "memory" tab in CPU-Z look in Windows?

Does razer blade 17 2021 have xmp support?

On 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.
