What speed is my Memory REALLY running at??
Friends this has nothing to do with which os, to my understanding, but I posted this on lesser forums and stumped everyone. I predict that will not happen on this forum!
In theory my 'project' notebook, having i945GM chipset, is supposed to run the memory bus at either/or 266MHz or 333MHz. I have the two slots populated with matched 1GB 667MHz ddr.
When I pull up SIW to check, it says "DRAM Frequency 266.0"
It shows the modules themselves as "667 MHz"
So I go run MEMTEST 4.0, and it shows:
RAM Speed = 221MHz [DDR445]
FSB 133Mhz
CAS 4-4-4-12
no errors....
Can someone tell me what's going on here?
the Cpq BIOS/Setup is typically barren... no options to speak of, nothing at all about the various clockings...
