heres my report on it

What's the model # of the DRAM? Are you OCed at all?

My model is CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9R and no im not OCed

Try manually setting to 1600, 9-9-9-27 1.55 and give it a try

How do i do that specifically?

 

[Tradesman1]

In the BIOS, Find DRAM set to 1600, DRAM timing to 9-9-9-27, DRAM voltage to 1.55

In case there is confusion about what timings to adjust -

CAS Latency (CL) = 9

t[sub]RCD[/SUB] = 9

t[sub]RP[/sub] = 9

t[sub]RAS[/sub] = 27

Command Rate set to 2, if the memory still doesn't work (properly) on Auto setting.

I just did it now and still no change

I saw that the command rate was set to 1 in auto, should i put it to 2 ?

 

[brispuss]

For now, yes.

 

[kevindmx]

For now, yes.

I did it and im not sure if there is any difference, i checked my task manager and it still says speed 333mhz

 

[brispuss]

If not already done, update BIOS. Load BIOS defaults. Set memory parameters manually again.

Get CPU-Z and look in the Memory tab at the frequency listed it will be half the data rate you are running 667 = 1333, 800=1600 since this is DDR (DOUBLE data rate)

My DRAM says 775, so does that mean I am good?

 

[brispuss]

That means your memory is running at 2 x 775 = 1550 MHz. Not quite 1600, but close enough.
