Hi everybody i recently got a new motherboard bc my old asus motherboard had a crack in the south bridge the new one is temperary its an ecs a960m-mv it saise that it support 1866mhz ram
but it saise my ram is running at 667mhz my ram is 4gb pny optima 1333mhz it only lets me go up to 1066 mhz in the bios and after i do that it wont boot up so i thought maybe they fixed this in the bios update well i used the american megatrends software from the motherboard website and it flashes the bios reboots then the screen saise my cmos settings are wrong so i go into the bios put the date at the correct time and save changed and exit now their is a tiny white line in the top left corner of the screen its not blinking anymore its just sitting their doing nothing like its frozen idk what to do but with my ram underclocked i cant play bf4

well i was looking at it in amd overdrive just a second ago and it saise its only using 667mhz and my games are slower than before bc its running at 667 mhz are you possitive of this double data thing bc my old motherboard didnt have this can you send me a link to a video explaining it or something bc im not a genius yet lol.
 

Ever heard of Google? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_data_rate
 


heres what i half to say overdrive said it was running at 667mhz not 1333mhz and my old asus motherboard would run at 1333mhz if i would select 1600 mhz it would run 1600mhz it didnt have double data settigns plus this new motherboard 1866mhz is the highest frequency and i can select 333mhz-1086mhz 1086 x2 is not 1866mhz and 1866mhz is the highest supported frequency. the main problem is my pc keeps freezing and i reinstalled the os 3 times with different ones i used 8.1 and after that windows 7 i even zero writed the hard drive before the install idk if its the hard drive or the bios and i dont have money to test that theory.
 
OK so i figured out a way to update the bios it took me to figure out dos to get it to work lol their was a certain command i had to type in dos that wouldnt work before but it saise it updated
