Ram speed please help?

Solution
It's running at 1333, dual channel has nothing to do with the actual data rate it runs at, The DRAM is at a freq of 665, and this is DDR (DOUBLE data rate) so take true freq (665) x 2 = effective data rate (1330 or rounded to 1333). Dual channel is where the Memory takes the channels (each holding a stick of DRAM which is a 64 bit device) and 'sees' them as a single 128bit device. Can find more FAQs on DRAM here:

and on the counter side, part 2 of my article, the 'fiction' here:

Since it says it is Single Channel, that would just be the DRAM, which is 665,3 Mhz.

If you had dual channel you'd multiply this amount by 2, making it roughly 1330 Mhz
