[mowberry14]

i recently bought a kingston 4gb ddr3 1333mhz and i cant be recognized by my mobo(emaxx ig41d3-icafe) ....but my old 2gb ddr3 1060mhz ram was working....im tinking it might be on the bios setup but i dont know how to do it.

- Support for DDR3 1333(OC)/1066/800 MHz memory modules

Does this mean that it can only support up to 1066, which can be OCed to 1333Mhz? Someone correct me if I am wrong.

You likely will have to OC your processor to get it to run at 1333 mhz... If you can get into your bios you can manually set the speed to 1066 and everything "should" work fine at that point. the OC means your processor will need to be overclocked to reach that speed.

What CPU? This is a socket 775 mobo, to run 1333 need to raise your FSB up to 1333 min - this will also OC your CPU (though you should be able to lower the CPU multiplier if it runs to hot
