ASRock H61M/U3S3 doesnt recognize 1333?

[charon711]

I just built my budget gaming system recently and i went diving into the bio's and found that my ASRock H61M/U3S3 doesn't recognize my Mushkin Enhanced Silverline 4GB (2 x 2GB) 1333 and wants to clock it as 1066. My CPU is the Intel Pentium G620. From my research i should be able to get the 1333 timings but when i open the option up in my UEFI BIOS i only see 800 and 1066.

How can i get it to recognize my RAM as 1333?

you have to enable XMP ,or overclock you cpu....it only supports 1066mhz ram clock

XMP? Whats that and how do i do it? I didnt see any options for it in my BIOS.

check your boards manual it will tell you exactly how to enable XMP if your rams support it , XMP is overclocking for noobs , so if your rams doesnt have a profile you will have to overclock your CPU to use more rams at 1333mhz

i just checked the rams and they dun have xmp profile so its either 1066 or overclock to use 1333mhz your call

not sure about overclocking my cpu. I dont want to mess it up or anything. is there much of a difference in gaming between 1066 an 1333?
