I just installed 8gb DDR 1600 MHz DDR3 Ram from Corsairs
it's now went from 6 GB to 8 GB now.( i can upgrade it to 10 if i put 2GB Ram Card. but question is now why is my power up slower?
i get black screen for maybe a minute then it says i get the welcome to windows sound then from black screen to please wait
then i log on windows it feels slow

I checked my task manager is now says i have 8GB Ram Memory but UNKNOWN
Speed is 800 MHZ compared if i bring up to 10 GB it will say 400 MHz <-- Does this matter when i brought it as 8 GB DDR3 1600 MHz?

while my lap top it says 16GB DDR3 1600 MHz
