Ah, didn’t realise that, thanksYes, I believe Alstone and Tongfang are basically the same company.

That’s what the laptop supports, yeah, but you need RAM that’s compatible with autoclocking
like this:
Corsair Vengeance Black 32GB 5600MHz DDR5 Memory
Buy from Scan - 32GB (2x16GB) Corsair DDR5 Vengeance SODIMM, PC5-44800 (5600), Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 48, 1.1V

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe Alstone builds TongFang chassis under license, similar to how Mercedes produces small displacement engines heavily based on Nissan-Renault designs, with Mercedes components and labeled as Mercedes.

Gotcha, there's definitely a connection of some form, weather TongFang have rebranded entirely, or as you say, some kind of licensing agreement.I'm not 100% sure, but I believe Alstone builds TongFang chassis under license, similar to how Mercedes produces small displacement engines heavily based on Nissan-Renault designs, with Mercedes components and labeled as Mercedes.

Yeah, the OP ordered without OS: I studied German for three years at school and remember next to nothing, but betriebssystem is operating system.
Curious question for my own knowledge closet
Is auto-clocking a new thing? I'm sure my Octane I had to go into the BIOS to change the profile. IIRC I could do next to hee haw on the RAM outside of choose the pre-configured profile (I don't recall if it was an XMP thing, I think it was back to the olden days of the hardened profile on the RAM itself). Is it basically taking that previous method and automatically incorporating it rather than having to select it?
Being able to lower the clocks/timings to bare minimum for the chipset/CPU was always handy for fault finding so wondered if the automation side could be switched off or not? Apologies for the slight hijack, just curious of the modern workings.

Let's wait for @BlessedSquirrel, but from what I've been able to read around, RAM modules are generally of two profile types: plug and play (with autoclock) suitable for beginners or systems with locked BIOS and XMP/EXPO suitable for enthusiasts or full unlocked systems that allow manual settings via BIOS.
I'm sure Spyder will explain it much better than me, and more importantly, in your language. 🤣
The Kingston Fury Impact 32GB 6000Mhz RAM kit used by the OP is an XMP profile type, whereas the 5600Mhz kit is a plug-and-play profile type.
So, if I understand well, the 6000MHz kit will not autoclock and can only be tuned through an unlocked BIOS, but the 5600MHz kit will automatically set to the maximum frequency allowed by the system without the need for manual settings.

That’s exactly right.
It is very possible if the OS hasn’t been clean installed then perhaps the RAM clocking section of Control Center isn’t being correctly displayed as the OS isn’t configured
Im not certain, I just know on previous models it’s always been autoclocking RAM sticks.
It may be best for @M.H to verify the RAM control with PCS
