    @irsh_​ Hey man if you dont mind me asking, I just bought the same kit but im locked at 4800Mhz. Did yours work as soon as it was swapped out?  Or did you have to change some settings im not getting any luck

    @raulbean , do you have 12th gen processor?  See memory configurations supported table below and noted that memory will run at the speed the processor is rated for.

    @Chino de Oro​ Appreciate you helping out, I have the 14th Gen 14700f. It says it's compatible with 2x16Gb DDR5 5600Mt/s. Which is the same as listed as the ones the guy linked above I have swapped the stock RAM but its capped at 4800Mt/s. Im unable to modify it in bios as overclocking settings appear to be locked in disabled and theres no option in Alienware Command Center.
