Solved Can anyone assist with my memory and CPU-Z readings

[customBUILDER]

Hi all,

Im currently running CPU-z, speedfan and core temp. Ive added a screenie of CPU-z.

Am i getting this wrong or is there a problem. BIOS says that it is set to run at 1333mhz at 9-9-9-24 @ 1.500v not 533.3mhz 8-8-8-20 as CPU-z says

Thanks

running at 1066 did you check XMP on the mem sticks that might be your issues

Some boards you can simply change it to the rated speed others might need some work to make it happen ussually overclocking will set it right but should be set correctly if the board supports that speed

Just gone back into BIOS, dunno if its anything to do with XMP as you mentioned as im new to all this stuff but i changed the MCH freq latch to 200mhz and the SPD to 4.00 and its sorted it.

So thank you

yup you used XMP which allows you to either bring your ram to rated speed or clock it further Xtreme memory profile

You just had to adjust the timings which was very easy for you ,that's awesome there are some threads you might want to check out for future use

Thank you, ill take a look.

It was a little weird, it was set at 333mhz which ran at 1066 and at 266mhz it was even lower, but its done now

Thank you very much, now i can look into doing cpu and maybe gpu if i can

Good luck and be carefull with Overclocking andmake sure to have good cooling because things tend to heat up
