How I do know if my ram is running at the correct speeds?

This is what I currently have in my system

Open up task manager, switch to the performance tab, click Memory on the left, the speed is on the right hand side under the 2nd graph

So i take it, it is running at its correct speed?

Task Manager is known to display incorrect info.
Use CPU-Z instead, check memory and spd tabs.

You can Download CPU-Z here - https://www.cpuid.com/downloads/cpu-z/cpu-z_1.87-en.exe

Its free and as SkyNetRising mentioned its worth double checking using that software.

If that tells you the same then yes its running at the correct speed.

My mobo might have oc'd the ram a little bit

 

[stevenjemint]

Yup, and its running slightly quicker which is great.

It's running at 2447mhz instead of 2400mhz.
If you have 2 ram modules, then command rate should be set to 1T (2T is for 4 modules).

I have no clue what you mean lol.. sorry, I do have two 8gb sticks

There are but you should avoid them. Some of the less reputable ones have been known to install malware.

You are better off going to the manufactures website for each individual piece of hardware yourself and getting the most up to date driver from there.

Command rate is ram parameter. You'd have to go into BIOS to change it.
2T command rate setting causes slight memory performance penalty.

But if you're not comfortable going into BIOS and changing it, then don't worry about it. You'd probably wouldn't even be able to notice the difference.
