    If you have undervolt enabled using anything higher than 2400MHz needs reduction in undervoltage values to almost NIL. Since RAM prices were pretty high and stocks low I figured its best to invest in new laptop that supports 3200MT/s natively.
    P5 should work w/o any issue. Invest in thermal pad/slim profile heatsink for best performance.
