so if you turn on the XMP profile, but dont touch anything else, is it stable?
If your not using a samsung b-die chip, then overclocking speedwise is going to be tough. Truly, the advertised speed is about all you are going to get out of most chips, and if you CAN get more out of them, they are marketed as such and are going to pay about double for a higher quality silicon kit. As I said before, ram speed is not as important to performance as timings, and harder to get stable. Thats not to mention other factors like power supply quality, motherboard you are using, and the quality of the CPU you are using.
The way silicon works, no part is ever 'exactly' the same, so dont fret if you cant get some super big OC or something on your ram, especially when performance wise its not going to net you a ton of gains outside of benchmarks.
good luck!
