Intel XMP 1.3 Profile

The KLEVV NEO has one built in XMP 1.3 profile, making it easy to get the memory kit up and running with the factory settings. To enable the Intel XMP setting, you will need to go into your BIOS and enable it. Without doing that, you will be running the memory at JEDEC default speeds, which might not provide the optimal settings. For all testing, we will be utilizing the XMP 1.3 profile.

Without enabling the XMP 1.3 profile, the KLEVV NEO defaulted to 1600MHz with 11-10-10-28 timings. This goes to show that you’ll want to be sure to enable the XMP profile for best performance.

Let’s get to testing the memory!
