Question RAM Speed Stuck at 2133MHz Regardless of Speed Set

[Rage_8986]

I've had this issue for quite a while now, I was mainly ignoring it for the time being as I had more important things to get to, but now I finally want to get this issue fixed. I have been going back and forth as to why my Memory speed won't change, as it is consistently stuck at 2133Mhz no matter what settings I change. If I enter the timings and frequency manually, it doesn't change. Setting to auto, it doesn't change, and so on.

I'm not using any third-party software to manage my overclocking, it is all in the BIOS menu. RAM sticks are seated in 1 and 3. I tried reseating them but that did nothing.

What motherboard and cpu?

Memory should be in the primary slots 2 and 4. Xmp/docp often does not operate with only 1 and 3 populated.

Hello,

They are listed in my signature. But it is the ROG Strix B450-F Gaming motherboard and a Ryzen 9 5900X CPU. I can also go ahead and swap the sticks to 2 and 4 to see if that makes a difference.

Sorry on phone, signature isn't visible unless i select desktop mode.

Yeah try that, 2nd and 4th slot from cpu. Should work then.

Ahh, that is totally fine then haha.

I will shut down my PC real quick and try! Will report back in a few!

Unfortunately, no luck still. Both sticks swapped to the 2 and 4 spot but nothings changed.

Sorry! Spoke too soon! It is actually showing up as 3200MT/s in task manager now, though for some reason showed up as 2133MHz in the BIOS menu.

Bios reading default ID tag of the memory module, not accounting effective xmp speed, i think.

That's good then well done.

Thank you very much!
