HI,
My PC:
Processor:
AMD Phenom II x4 Quad-Core 955 AM3 3.2 GHz
CPU Cooler:
NOCTUA NH-U12P SE2
Motherboard:
GIGABYTE GA-990XA-UD3 AM3+ (rev. 3.0)
Memory:
G.SKILL Value F3-10600CL9S-4GBNT DDR3-1333 CL9-9-9 1.50V 4GB (1x4GB)
Kingston
DDR3 1333MT/s Non-ECC Unbuffered DIMM CL9 2RX8 1.5V 240-pin 4Gbit 8GB
Graphics:
AMD Radeon RX 460
I read all this threads:
forums.tomshardware.com

I understand the difference between Memory clock and Transfer rate and this is the reason why 667 MHz appears in all the software, the thing I don't understand is why 1,333 MHz appears in the BIOS?
Also I overclocked my CPU by updating the bus speed from 200 MHz to 230 MHz and now in the BIOS it shows:
CPU Clock speed as 3,681 MHz and RAM Clock Speed as 1,534 MHz.
After reading the notes in the specification of my motherboard , I know that I can upgrade my RAM to 32 GB by buying 4 sticks of Patriot Memory Signature DDR3 16GB (2 x 8GB CL11 PC3-12800 (1600MHz).
So, what will be the reading in the BIOS after the update?
Thanks.

Question - Are my two 2gb ram sticks fake
I have downloaded CPU-Z And check that both of my rams have 667mhz each , and when I check bios or Task manager it says I have frequency of 1333mhz Can those rams have been modified so they can show 1333mhz of frequency instead of 667mhz? Here image for refference https://ibb.co/8Mh0s7h...

[SOLVED] - Added 2x8Gb DDR3 to existing 2x8Gb DDR3, but new RAM is 1600 vs 1333
I've just added 2 more sticks of RAM to bring my 5 yr old PC up to 32gb (for audio editing mostly) and I didn't realize that the new DDR3 is 1600vs the original 1333. Would anyone be kind enough to look at the Speccy output below and tell me if anything looks odd?? If so, do you have any...

[SOLVED] - 1333Mhz
Hi, please help me change BIOS settings for 4GB DDR3 ram, currently, it shows 667 max bandwidth and 533Mhz Dram Frequency. And shows 1066 MHz in task manager. I think shop keeper has taken my 1333 and installed 1066 MHz Ram. Please help if its 1333 or 1066 MHz? MSI G41m-P25 Windows10
