Ram ?

[yo_yo2400]

in the bios my ram says it is running at 1333mhz but on cpuz it says its running at 666mhz. is this normal and dose it work

Double data rate
This is normal. The bios states the effective data rate. Ram is advertised at the effective data rate. CPU-z is reading the actual rate. The effective rate is twice the speed because it transfers data at both the rising and falling edge.
In short: That's normal and there is nothing wrong.

yeah CPUID tells you what the mhz the ram is running at the time. The computer idles certin parts to make them last longer but if your computer is running a heavy load the computer parts will be at the right speed

I have nothing more to say. We are talking about ram.

OP, your ram speed will never change. What you have now is what 1333MHz ram should read.

Lol Old Ace needs to go in the hall of shame. Yesterday he was trying to tell someone an i3 has only 3 cores and works on socket 1366
