Change your ram frequency to 400Mhz which in turn is 800MHZ DDR2

yes is that a problem cuz i thought it didnt matter

Reply to blaze15301

not really as long as they are both the same speed....

just make sure you see all 4 dims runing at the same speed.... download CPU-Z and check the timings

ok this is what its showing me
dram frequency 245.6 mhz
fsb:dram cpu/11
cas latensy 4.0 clocks
trcd 4 clcoks
trp 4 clocks
tras 12 clocks
trc 16 clocks
comand rate is 2t

thanks for your help i tried to find the right settings on ocz but i had no luck found some reviews on neweeg that said i basickly had to overclock the ram to get 800

the frequency is wrong... it should say 400Mhz or at least around that number....

i cant set it any higher in the bios it wont let me in the bios its at 400 mhz so idk what to do i gave it more voltage the voltage it supposed to have but it still stays the same

400Mhz DRAM frequency = 800MHZ DDR2

so basically if your DRAM freq says 400 then you are fine, if you want a bit more speed then raise the FSB

ok but why are all these prgrams saying my g skill is at 800 but the ocz isnt but the bios is saying thre both at the same speed everythign i have tested says ocz is at 633

Reply to blaze15301

Because all 4 modules have to be 800MHZ in order for them to run at that rated speed, if 2 of the 4 sticks are 533Mhz or lower then you cannot run all 4 sticks at 800MHZ
