Hi, I have this motherboard:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157236
And, this RAM
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226095

On the front page of the motherboard, it says it supports 1333, and the RAM is 1333, but when I go to BIOS, it says it is on 1066. In the OC tab, it is on Auto(or similarly worded), and it gives me a choice of clicking on 1333. I didnt click it yet, it is still on auto.

If i set it to 1330, can I save the BIOS updates and boot the computer and will everything be ok? Or do I need to change something else too. Also, will this make my computer faster, because I dont want to use 1066 if 1333 is available, or else I would have bought something cheaper that is 1066.

Thanks
 
Solution
i know ... it's very very normal and fine , however you have RAM 1600/1800/2000/ mobo alway's read 1066
you see standar mobo Asrock H61 read your RAM DDR3 1066 - AUTO ! Change to DDR3 1333

Hi, I didnt really understand. Because I am new to all of this, I just built my first computer.
I took pictures of the menu of where I can change the RAM stuff, and I switched auto to 1333, but then I went to main and it still said 1066, so I changed it back to auto.

From the picture, please show me what to change, and what to change it to, Thanks.

Heres the picture:
