RAM showing as half speed in Speccy app
- Thread starter Andykg10
- Start date
ok after installing the softwear, it's showing the RAM as 1064MHz as it's a DIMM dual in-line memory module that means you have to times the number, this case being 1064 x 2 = 2128Hz. basicaly, times the number by 2
Now as you say it's meant to be 3200MHz thats because you may need to use X.M.P, but before we look in to that can you please post the full specs of the system you bought from PC Specilist them we can see the whole system then we can advise better.
