I bought this RAM recently.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007TTEHUY/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's supposed to be a 1600Mhz RAM but I just ran 3D Mark and saw that it is running at ran at 667 Mhz. Then I downloaded CPU-Z and that shows 666 Mhz.
I went into BIOS and turned on this "XMP super mode" and now CPU-Z shows 800 which is obviously correct. However when I go on SPD it says that the Max Bandwith is 667. Is that normal?
Also, is there anything else that I need to do? I never overclock and I don't know if this is considered overclocking but there were many other options and I worry that I should have raised the volt somewhere or whatever so the RAM can work at 1600 without breaking or am I done?
