From 3170e9c0ef90dcbfb0b2e695fec3bd9d142d1db0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Angel Pons Date: Sat, 12 Dec 2020 16:22:18 +0100 Subject: nb/intel/sandybridge: Allow to ignore XMP voltage Native raminit only supports 1.5V operation, but there are DIMMs which request 1.65V operation in XMP profiles. Add an option to force XMP to be used when the requested voltage isn't supported, which will run the DIMMs at 1.5V with XMP timings. Consider this to be overclocking.
