*The C7Z97-OCE supports memory modules having a frequency of more than 2133MHz
(Extreme Memory Prole or XMP Memory). However, XMP memory is not within the JEDEC
memory standard. Compatibility and stability of these memory modules depend on varying
factors, including the processor's capabilities and other devices installed.
