None of the Inspiron laptops had XMP overclocking. Running at 2400MHz is fine. Online Inspiron 5490 Setup and Specifications PDF =[IMAGE]  
Hi, I bought a Kingston Fury IMPACT DDR4 2666Mhz SODIMM RAM (16GB) to upgrade my DELL Inspiron 14’ 5490 laptop, without realising Dell laptop bios has no option to enable XMP and that the ram published speed is supposed to be the overclocking speed. From task manager it seems to be now running at a lower 2400Mhz speed but then I’ve downloaded CPU-Z and HWiNFO64, it seems to me they are running at the correct 2666Mhz speed on CPU-Z and HWiNFO64. I’m hardly tech savvy and don’t really know what I’m seeing. So is the ram ok for my laptop? Or should I get another that doesn’t need XMP? Thanks in advance for any advice.[IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE]
