RAM is not working on 1333Mhz

Dave do you mean like post #8

It's Dependant on the motherboard and BIOS, most CPUs don't limit the RAM frequency, there is a ceiling where the system won't function. The limits you find in CPU info is the recommended max RAM frequency, overclocking can go above those limits if the BIOS has settings allowing it.
The previous gen AMD CPUs had trouble running RAM above 1333MHz but that can be stabilized by increasing the NB Frequency and adjusting other BIOS settings.

Okay I still need help StalkeR. What did you do to solve your problem.

As we said above, that mobo isn't for oc'ing, so we don't have settings in BIOS. That mobo support 1333 MHz, but the CPU doesn't. In my case, G630 have 1066 fsb, so I can't use that 1333 MHz from ram.

I have Corsair 4GB module, which is working on 1333MHz, but it's working on 1066 only.
I got this module: Corsair Memory

Attachment 224647

When I set ram freq. in BIOS on 1333MHz, pc is not starting. I got: Overclocking error.

It's set on auto, and it's working on 1066MHz.

Why I got this ? The mobo can handle up to 1333(1600 OC), and the module is 1333MHz.

Ive did some research, and the reason (for ex) my pc isnt working with 1333MHz frequency its becouse of the processor, CELERON, only supports 1066MHz Max for each memory.
I have the same motherboard as u, thats why i was searching for an answer for this prob...

Yes, I already found that. G630 is working only with 1066 speed.
