SPYAM Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Hello, now the frequency of my RAM is this (16 GB 2133 MHz DDR4). I activated xmp from bios, the frequency was 3200, but my Mac worked like a hang, and I disabled xmp again, the Mac worked correctly and without hang! What do you think I should do to solve this problem?

What do you think I should do to solve this problem? Hello, I have this problem if it crashes on an old Hack of mine, a Gigabyte B360M. i5 8th but the memory sticks are from the same brand, but from different series. And they are limited to 32 GB of RAM only, by the motherboard manufacturer. So I left XPM disabled. Try testing with two identical memory sticks.

Slice Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 My MB is Gigabyte so the BIOS is probably different. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/358057-xmp-problem-after-activation-on-mac/#findComment-2813584 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manual inform especifications and proper slots. If not, it could also be one of the reasons. If they are, put more lower frequency in the bios, for exemple 2666 Mhz.
