Hey i think that my memory is limiting my system

[MixyNet]

I have an 17-3820 + a gtx 1060 and i have 16gb ddr3 ram. Now the ddr3 ram is telling me thats its 666Mhz. But im pretty sure its supposed to run at 1333 Mhz now ive seen posts online saying that the speed is double but i do not really know. This is my Cpu-Z report.

Should i do anything in BIOS or is it fine as is?

CPU-Z is reporting dual channel just like it should 667 X 2 is the 1333 memory reading.

You have listed SPD table only. That doesn't tell about actual settings that are being used by your system.

666MHz at double data rate (DDR) means effectively 1333MHz. Everything is as it should be.

so i don't need to do anything in bios, XMP etc...?

 

[Kasper Jorgensen]

No, everything is fine and as it should be.

All is well. If your RAM is rated for 1600 or something then you should be running it at that speed, but if it is rated for 1333 then you are all good.
