Test system:

To ensure the memory runs as intended, we first of all head towards BIOS to enable the XMP profile. The 10th Anniversary kit comes with two profiles, the first of which sets the kit to 1866MHz with timings of 9-11-9-27 and the second to 1600MHz with timings of 9-9-9-27. Both profiles run at 1.65v. For this review we’ll keep the memory at the higher speed of 1866MHz so profile 1 is what we will select.
