Hi

I recently bought some sticks of Patriot >1600 MHZ< RAM of this site, here.

But in the BIOS it appeared to be 1280~ or somethign like that, what's up with that? Was I reading it incorrectly? I notice the number '1280' in the product title, but it's not the Mhz.

I double checked, when I return the settings to default, my 'default' RAM frequency is 1066, I have to turn the SPD up to 12 to get 1600 as advertised on the box
