G3 3500 ram upgrade
Hello everybody,
I just upgraded my G3 3500 with 2x8gb Crucial Ballistix 3200 (compatible). When I check the frequency of my newly installed ram it says 2666 instead of 2933.
Any suggestions ?
If you look at the reviews on Crucial's website, there are many complaints about Ballistix RAM in some systems. To run at full speed, it requires a system that has XMP support - which your G3 almost certainly does not.
You may be better off with Crucial's standard RAM.

Thank you for your answer. What do you think about these then ?
Corsair Vengeance 2x8gb 2933MHz CL19
There is no mention of XMP.

Hi, I have recently upgraded to Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 SODIMM 3000MHz CL16
Its running @2667MHz and now I am finding out some way to enable XMP but I think its not supported in current BIOS.
My Laptop info:
Dell G3 15 3500
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz

I got 2x8gb Corsair Vengeance 2933MHz, and it works just fine. Even tested them and got high performances.
Thank you for your time.
