Rog strix g16 2023 g614ji Ram insane situation

Dont understand why asus is doing so many trash products but it piss me off because making a product of 1500 euro and run like crap more stuff comes on design and engineering monkey level is not normal,ok end of the bs. here what i discover about it reading around the web.
Ram problem is hard and stupid.
This is stock ram comes with laptop trash 16gb run normaly at 5600mt mhz

This is the new ram i buy today 32gb same speed 5600mt mhz but even supported by the cpu

You will say yes but laptop dont have XMP in the bios true true but! wait i will reach to this point.
how is possible asus dint put this ram on validation when this ram have less cl at same voltage so there is no problem about voltage and overheat but not even the case about give xmp on laptop the profile is allready on jedec no problem at all and the new ram is stuck at 4800mt mhz. i dont know if asus do that for marketing level give crap product with out give to people chance to upgrade the laptop and force them after few years to change it because is lack of power or because laziness or stupidity but i can tell you everything is possible and i will modify the bios to unlock the hidden option and i will bypass this stupid ****** because is insane,you need to give to people the tools to modify they pc is not excuse in 2025. is not possible i need to go and lose so much time just to mod a bios to allow me to do what i wonna with my pc.

Hello,

There are a few aspects that can cause this to occur such as the CPU itself, motherboard / DIMM slot causing signalling issues (interference / CPU memory controller design limitations) but ignoring all of that you may have greater success if you can find modules that use SK Hynix chips instead of Kingston. Kingston did use SK Hynix previously on these but for some reason they switched to their own brand / design and it appears this one is not as reliable.

Similar to this, "DRAM Manuf" in CPUZ

The big retarded backflip you need to do is to find the right ram asus made a validation on that when they release the last bios update to allow you to use at full speed and when you try to use other rams with better performance but same specs you cant do it because they never updated the list of rams on the last bios update.
Is not about compatibility but what asus allow you to use it. i dont think asus will release or gonna work anymore on this kinda of (old) platforms.
the only solution is Mod the bios to unlock the hidden options on bios where you can change the timings on ram manually or go crazy and find the right ram is validated on they bios release.

Well pain in ass arrived like i said and discover few new things to me
-Intel boot guard will not allow you to run a modded bios but allready solved the problem
-bios chip is winbond 25r256jven2338 and is located more deep under the mobo so you need to extract almost everything
- tools you need to use CH341A FLASH EEPROM (24хх/25xx)   / SOP8/WSON8/QDFN8 probe spacing 8x6mm
this is not a classic flashing-bios where you mod the bios put on usb and done, this will need more skills and knowledge
