hehe, was tripped up by this too: upgraded from 2x8 LPX to 2x16 Ballistix, then noticed this. Lot's of elements for confusion...

Thought something was amiss, that the system saw the new ram but kept the old name etc.

But it seems to be a hardcoded compatibility fix for this RAM.]]> Wed, 26 Feb 2020 17:50:53 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73151&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73151 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73017&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73017 Author: svewag

Comparing to the XMP Profile it lowers the DRAM Voltage to 1.3V.
The Timings stay the same. ]]> Sat, 22 Feb 2020 15:37:32 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73017&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73017 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73008&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73008 Author: Ray62

The XMP profiles are made for the Intel platform and are not always the best for Ryzen, especially for the first Ryzen generation.
This selectable profile for this RAM is (or should be) optimzed for Ryzen.

Try it and compare if you want to see the difference.]]> Sat, 22 Feb 2020 09:09:32 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73008&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73008 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73006&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73006 Author: svewag

How does it differ from the XMP Profile?
What does this profile set, when selected?]]> Sat, 22 Feb 2020 08:56:04 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73006&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73006 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73005&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73005 Author: Ray62

This is a profile for exactly this RAM. If you do not have this RAM, choose AUTO. ]]> Sat, 22 Feb 2020 08:54:41 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=73005&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#73005 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13698&PID=72983&title=what-is-this-oad-dram-profileselectfontfont#72983 Author: svewag
