Hi All,

I am getting pretty frustrated by this point. I recently upgraded RAM and I get the same problem a lot of people are having with it only running at 1333Mhz. I enter my BIOS (ASUS UEFI EZ Mode) and I enable the XMP profile which will allow new RAM to run at the desired 1600Mhz. I did verify right type of RAM for my system.

After I make the change I click "save and exit" but then I get an indication window saying that I haven't made any changes. I click cancel and even just to be sure I change my system performance setting to Power Saving or ASUS Optimal just to ensure I actually made a change the system should recognize but sure thing I get the same indication that no changes were made so therefore it can't save anything. Even if I went and changed boot priority, still nothing.

I'm at a loss!

Thank you,

[UPDATE] So I have noted in a lot of videos and articles that many people have this AI Tweaker tab in their BIOS. I am similar to a person who posted that he as well as I, do not have this tab. I went to verify correct updated BIOS was installed and since my mobo (H87M-PRO) is a pre-built M51AC system last update was from 2013. Regardless that it says I can use AI Suite III and all these features I have tried numerous times and can't get it to work. Not really important but since my system can't overclock maybe my first post is useless because I can't actually change anything anyways.

Kind of disappointing as I did not wish to buy new mobo and have to update CPU. Feeling like this might be only option of getting around this pre-built disaster.
