Overclocking
Disclaimer: Overclocking is never guaranteed, so the results may vary depending on certain conditions and various hardware configurations. I do not recommend overclocking if you do not know what you are doing. High voltages may damage hardware, and the warranty will not cover it.
All Crucial Pro Overclocking memory kits use Micron IC, and the 6400MT/s kit is no different. It’s not the overclocker’s choice nowadays, but it still has some overclocking headroom. As I mentioned, it has an optimal frequency range for AMD users.
The tested memory kit worked fine at more than 1.4V VDD/VDDQ. However, it didn’t scale well past DDR5-6800, so I kept the 1.40V voltage and stabilized it at DDR5-6400 CL36, the best setting for everyday use and gaming.
Even though the tested memory has a higher capacity, overclocking results are similar to those we saw in the last Crucial Pro Overclocking memory reviews.
Below is the 6400MT/s CL36 result.
Regardless of voltages, CL32 couldn’t be set at 6000MT/s+. On the other hand, most applications perform as well at CL32 on competitive memory kits as at CL40 from the EXPO profile.
The Crucial Pro OC RAM maintains the same high quality among multiple kits. It may not be the fastest or best overclocking memory, but it’s easy to stabilize and perfectly fits into modern computers’ most popular memory range. Even though we wish to see higher frequencies, the 6400MT/s is
