Hello everyone,

Could anyone tell me why my RAM memory frequency is 3200 MHz but it shows up in the BIOS DIMM slots as 2400 MHz? :O

 

[Nibb Mills]

mine is 3200 but shows up as like 1059

 

[Allen J Russell]

Did you change it manually to 3200 mhz?

 

[Nibb Mills]

i have gskill 3200mhz i installed it but i dunno what to do

Enable xmp

 

[Allen J Russell]

Under your oc settings look for ram frequency and set it for 3200mhz, if it doesn't want to load you will habe to play with timings. Make sure there set for.the rated timings on your ram

 

[Allen J Russell]

Or try a xmp profile

 

[Allen J Russell]

I manually set mine

 

[Nibb Mills]

how do i get to the oc settings lol

 

[Allen J Russell]

It's in bios

 

[Nibb Mills]

its currently at 1064 instead of 3200 xD il check when i turn my pc on next

 

[Allen J Russell]

I see it says press f11 when your at your bios screen

 

[Allen J Russell]

It will take you to advanced user controls.

 

[Allen J Russell]

Make sure your bios is up to date also b4 changing anything

 

[Allen J Russell]

Got to asus support for your board and double check your on the most recent bios

 

[Nibb Mills]

i dont even know if its up to date i installed a new mobo when i did the ram too

 

[Jari van Dorsselaer]

No, it's normal. I bought 3000mhz ram and the base speed is lower. That's the marketing trick. They sell you 2133/2400mhz ram and it's possible to oc it to 3400, but the base is 2400.

 

[Allen J Russell]

There are probably updates then

 

[Allen J Russell]

It always loads a safe configuration of a lower speed. 3200mhz is considered a overclock

 

[Allen J Russell]

It's why you manually have to set it
