My knock against is pc2 5400 which should run at 667Mhz and its at 200!?

How do I conversion the speed. My Motherboard says it can switch up to 800Mhz. The ram is Ocz Gold XTC 2x1 Gb. My motherboard is an ECS junker BUT it say it can do 800Mhz. I have looked within the bios and see nowhere about shifting ram speed or timings. Just how much I hold installed.

First 667 memory cannot run at 800mhz. 2nd ECS is not really a overclocking motherboard and 3rd it's according to the speed of the cpu itself. What speed/model is the cpu?

You might also look for bios updates. Sometimes it corrects memory issues (according to what it fixes).

Edit: not saying it's a POS, purely not really a overclocker. Little strange to show 200, it would show 667mhz. Look up the motherboard in the above intermingle and check the bios files/download. There MIGHT be a fix for it displaying it like that.
you dont want to do anything, the ram will look after itself
What you are chitchat about is call overclocking. All motherboards are different so you will have to find the brochure for instructions. This is something you don't want to mess around with unless you know what you're doing. You can also run it to a pc tech for assistance.

Is your motherboard FSB (front side bus) running at 800 mhz? That sounds right, but doesn't necessarily propose that's how fast the memory can run. It should update you that it supports b/w PC xxxx and PC yyyy memory speeds.



Also, are you using more than 1 memory stick? If both are not at the same speed, they might beneath clock themselves to a common denominator.



You won't know how to change RAM speed within the BIOS or PC anywhere, it will clock itself.
