Hi,
Ok, atm my comp is running fine. everythings is OK.
However, i have discovered that my ram (2 x 2GB), Kingston KHX6400D2K2/4G 800mhz (PC2-6400), is being underclocked to my understanding....cause when i use
CPU-Z, it says that my ram is running at (PC2-5300) 333Mhz at 1.8 volts. Currently my sticks are in slot 1 and 3 running dual channel mode.
Everything runs smooth and well...but its jus that i cannot overclock due to this reason i think.

how com my mobo isnt recognising my ram properly?

btw im quite noob~~not pro...-.-

My Specs:
CPU: Intel E8500
Mobo: EP35-DS3P rev 2.1 (bios = F3n)
Ram: Kingston KHX6400D2K2/4G 800mhz (PC2-6400), 2 x 2GB
Gfx: 9800gtx

i dun understand....please give me tips to check and to fix this problem, as i have called kingston help lines and gigabyte sites....none hav solutions.

cheers
