Incorrect RAM Frequency Displayed (Pls Help)

[Hazza462]

Hey guys,

I installed some new RAM recently into my Lenovo H330. The RAM I installed was Kingston HyperX Beast 2400mhz 8GB. This all worked fine, however when I ran 'CPU-z' it showed that my RAM was only running at around 666mhz. http://gyazo.com/2da7930ba946146e4b90ed36d7a079b7

Can anyone help me fix this so that my RAM runs at the correct frequency of 2400mhz.
Thanks

Try the RAM in a different PC.

i can not see any problem in your picture ...you have 665,2 X 2 = 1330,4 mhz
your pc can only support 1333mhz ram ...so Kingston HyperX Beast 2400mhz is not compatible with your rig

8GB max
PC3-10600 1333MHz DDR3
non-parity,
dual-channel capable, two 240-pin DIMM sockets

can you give me the full model number ?
like lenovo h330 1159 ....

Why isn't it running at that speed then

The fastest that ram will run in that system is at ddr3 1333. DDR3 1333 will show as a runnimg 666 or sometimes 665 clock speeds which is normal for DDR(double data rate).
