1866Mhz ram, 1600Mhz mobo

Kovala · Oct 13, 2013

Hello.
I bought Crucial Ballistix Tactical 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1866 RAM. My motherboard supports 1600Mhz RAM.

BIOS shows that RAM is running at 1333Mhz. Is changing multiplier to 16 enough to run it at 1600Mhz properly or should I change timings or something too?
Thanks

if it boots then yeah, but i imagine you should change the timings a bit, perhaps only cas, probably voltage aswell and you should be good to go

I am not experienced with computers. Can you tell which timings values should i change please?

when you go into your ram settings in bios you can see what timings are set for 1600mhz it should be something like 9-9-9-24-34 if not sure what that means the.: cas cl 9, ras to cas dealy 9, ras precharge trp 9, cycle time 24, ban cycle time 34
