Solved 666.5Mhz when supposed to have 1600Mhz? Tags: Gaming RAM Dual Channel Memory Last response: August 17, 2014 12:57 PM in Memory Share killas291 August 16, 2014 9:43:09 PM Hi. I have these RAM sticks: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Crucial-BLE2CP4G3D1608DE1TX0CEU... They are supposed to be 1600Mhz according to description. But speccy shows that it only has 666.5Mhz: If it's dual-channel... Shouldn't it be 800Mhz? Mobo: Z97 Gaming 5 Thank you for reading.

You may need to enable XMP to have the board auto set the proper speed/timings. Alternatively you can just set them manually in the bios Reply to nukemaster m 0 l killas291 August 16, 2014 9:57:31 PM nukemaster said:Many memory modules default to a lower speed to ensure systems boot.

Make sure you follow the manufacturers rated speed, timings and voltage. The board lists support for SMP, but manual should work fine. Page 3-18 should have info in the English manual.
