Aurora R15, Kingston Fury Beast DDR5 6,000MT/s compatible?
I'd like to increase the RAM in my Aurora R15, which came with one 16 gig stick of 5200MT/s. Would the R15 notice any difference if I added the faster stuff? Kingston has up to 6,000MT/s available, but I don't know if the mobo and/or BIOS would be able to use the extra speed.

Once you have the RAM installed, remove the button battery from your motherboard. Wait like 10 seconds , then put it back in. Flash your BIOS back to 1.0.5. Open AWCC, click on FUSION, scroll to the left and click on the ADVANCED VIEW tab next to MEMORY CLOCK and choose RAM 1. Reboot and done.

OK, I finally got it. Flash the BIOS to the 1.0.5 version, the XMP option still remains gray and unrecognizable for the RAM, but they can enabled in AWCC. Perfect and I'm satisfied.
Special thanks to @aryuss since his post helped a lot.

Curious if you know what the motherboard limit is?

Been discussed on here frequently. The high end Alienware desktop range is very picky when it comes to upgrading memory. Dell will immediately point to the R15 spec sheet hidden 5 pages down if it does not work. There also good at unusual memory speeds.
Do your research because you do not have a standard motherboard and it was built to house the system you have with little or no upgradability offered.

I ordered some Beast DDR5 XMP Desktop Memory 5600MT/s and will post what I get for speed after I install it and read what it says in the BIOS. I am expecting 6,000.

I think the limit is 7000 with current bios. And the bios can not identify the xmp setting of my new DRAM. Somehow it took 7000 by itself and you can not change it to more

That is interesting SPD information. That kit can go to 34-42-42-96 at 1.45 Volt.
The 40-40-40-77 timings are for 1.1 volt.
So I guess the the R15 does not support 1.45 volt modules?

There is one thing i noticed. For AWCC, the timing of the DRAM seems not correct in this case, while I used cpu-z, it gives the ones matching the XMP

It's pretty confusing. I turned OC on in the BIOS, then idiotically tried to use an Intel overclocking program, which made the OS freak out for a while. I have also seen different speed readings in different places from the same stick of RAM.

Sounds like some memory benchmarks are needed to figure out what the memory is actually running at...
