ASRock intros XMP 1.3 Revision

by VARINDIA 2011-09-07

ASRock is using HyperX memory from Kingston to demonstrate Intel's XMP 1.3 support for ASRock customers. Intel is planning to release new XMP 1.3 standard in early 2012, but users have an earlier chance to try this new technology. ASRock had developed the BIOS to load XMP 1.3 support on Z68 Extreme7 Gen3 motherboard with the un-released HyperX Series XMP 1.3 memory modules.

Compared with previous XMP 1.2 version, XMP 1.3 can provide more precise DRAM timing settings. Simply load XMP 1.3 profile in the BIOS to explore the maximum speed of your DDR3 memory. Users should also take care that only XMP 1.3-supported motherboard can fully unleash XMP 1.3 memory power.
