Hello, I have recently encountered a problem regarding RAM. I have upgraded from default 1x4Gb Elpida (runs at 1600MHz with CL11) to 2x4Gb Kingston HyperX set (can run at 1600MHz CL9, proof attached) but the system sets default frequency to 1333MHz with CL9.
The usual advice is to go to BIOS and change everything....yeah, that wont work. ASUS has kindly removed all settings reguarding DRAM configuration from BIOS and even bloats about it in manual.

My specs are:

    Notebook ASUS K56B (2 memory slots available)
    win7 x64
    latest available BIOS v.205
    New memory - KHX1600C9S3K2/8GX

All relevant screens:
DOES

SHOULD
