Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your system is powered down and the PSU is switched off. Insert the module into an empty DDR5-compatible DIMM slot until the retention clips click into place. Upon first boot, enter your motherboard BIOS/UEFI settings to enable the XMP or EXPO profile to ensure the RAM runs at its rated 6000MT/s speed. For maintenance, keep the interior of your PC case dust-free using compressed air to maintain optimal airflow around the module's heatsink. Avoid touching the gold contact pins with bare fingers to prevent oil buildup.
