I just finished building my PC and noticed in the BIOS that my RAM is running at 4800MHz. I'm using Corsair Vengeance RAM rated at 6000MHz CL30. Is there a specific setting I need to adjust to get it to run at its full speed of 6000MHz?

You may need to enable EXPO if your RAM supports it. Alternatively, you can manually set the speed in the BIOS if you prefer that method.
In the BIOS, go to the overclocking (OC) section and enable EXPO 1. That should let your RAM run at its rated speed of 6000MHz without any issues.
Okay, is that all I need to do?
Wait, I'm a bit confused. The first reply says my motherboard should automatically recognize it for EXPO, but my RAM packaging doesn't mention it. Does that matter?
