Hello again folks!
I finally got around to replacing my motherboard on my AMD rig (it wouldn't boot cold) and decided to just upgrade the whole setup with a Ryzen build
Here's the PCpartpicker list
The problem that I'm having involves the RAM.
Now before I get the lecture about "double data rate," I understand how that works, I'm just trying to make sure I'm not losing my mind here.
It's 2666 MHz, and it shows in the BIOS as 2666 MHz, but in Windows task manager it shows 1333 MHz.
CPU-Z shows DRAM as 1333, which would be right since it's half, but when I go to do a userbenchmark, it says 2666 MHz clocked at 1333 MHz in the RAM section.
On my Intel build that also has 2666 MHz RAM it shows 2666 MHz in the task manager.
I have tried a few different settings in the BIOS to correct this.
Tried setting XMP profile to auto and DRAM to auto. This changes it to 2133 MHz and it shows half of that in task manager as well.
Tried setting XMP profile to auto and DRAM to 2666, still shows half.
Tried setting XMP profile to 1 and DRAM to 2666, still shows half.
Tried setting XMP profile to 1 and DRAM to auto, it goes down to 2133 again and shows half.
Anyone have any insight?
