Hello,

I just recently purchased a pc. I am running 32Gb Ram in dual channel mode. I am using 4 sticks of 8gb 1600 Bus speed Ram. My Bios Shows 1600 Mhz. Bur CPU-Z is showing 800Mhz. Is this unusual? Am I supposed to be seeing 1600 Mhz in CPU-Z as well? Screenshot is given below.

Yes, that's normal, as explained above it's 800x2, but those timings look awful loose - CL11 on 1600 sticks is very high, norm is about CL9, is this value DRAM? What is the model #?

Thanks people

Tradesman1, Yes these are value ram, I dont have a lot of options when purchasing ( bcuz of my location ). But I want to make sure that my pc is running to its max potential. I dont have much knowledge about CAS# Latency. How is it being 11 affecting me? Can i get it down to 9?

u_gonna_squeal_b4_we_cookya, I am mainly gonna be using After Effects.
