m18 R2, add XMP support for Crucial ram?
Anyway, to get XMP support added for these Crucial 96GB DDR5 RAM 5600MHz sticks? They function at 5200MHz. but would be nice to have 5600MHz.

Dell only validated our OEM XMP SODIMM.
T64DF 16GB 6000MHz, SODIMM, Unbuffered, DDR5, 260 Pin, Single Rank, Non-Error Correction Code, XMP Adata AO1V60ICSV1-BIKS
I doubt that the Alienware team would validate Crucial ram?

Not sure I fully understand your post. I'm assuming your saying Alienware won't bother validating Crucial ram, as it's not something they offer?

Sorry if my intial post wasn't clear. I replaced the ram with the crucial sticks and was wondering if support for them could be added?

@MrWu1f No. As shown above, Crucial ram is not tested/validated by Dell.

How would Dell add XMP support to Crucial memory?
These memories are JEDEC and do not have XMP profiles.
You cannot add XMP support to memory that doesn't have an XMP profile.

Kingston Fury ram 6000mts KF560S38IBK2-32 is NOT in the list I posted above so not tested/validated by Dell.
