So I bought 8GB of ram because im an Idiot and Massive ram is not needed yet..... But still fun to have
Anyway...
The ram currently runs at 1333 Mhz but has a potential of 1600. Ive heard the CPU determines the Ram speed and if so Im screwed but no matter 1333 is better than ddr2 800.
If its not the CPU and it the mobo how do I increase the ram to run at 1600 like intended?
The Specs I think would be needed for any help are as follows.
Mobo --> Asus M5A97 ( Uefi Bios )
CPU --> AMD Phenom II 955 BE X4
Ram --> Kingston Xhyper DDR3 1600 Mhz 8GB ( 2 Gb per stick )
PSU --> Corsair 850TX V2
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank ya's loads
