    [SOLVED] My ram is running slow?

    I have a dell optiplex with 16GB of DDR3 1600 MHz ram, task manager says it's running at 1600 MHz but MSI afterburner says it's running at 1000MHz. Which is correct and if it is running at 1000MHz what can I do to get it to run at its designated speed? Thanks!

    Do you think a 1650(super) would be a better option because it is newer and only requires 100W even though it is more expensive?

    [SOLVED] Dell Optiplex 9020 upgrades

    What would you say is the best bang for your buck? I was looking at the r7 260x and it seems to be the best price/frame ratio but does will it take too much power?
