Discussing memory clocks involves exploring how devices retain and manage data over time.
Discussing memory clocks involves exploring how devices retain and manage data over time.
Your 2 x 8GB Patriot DDR4-3600 CL17 modules are running at the advertised speed and voltage in BIOS on your 5600X and ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming 4. However, HWiNFO displays a memory clock of 1,796.7 MHz. Given it's double data rate, this seems to reflect half the rated frequency. I'm curious if the 3.3 MHz variance from 1,800 MHz could influence things like the 1:1 infinity fabric clock, which you understand is ideal for Ryzen processors.
Your infinity fabric clock is showing 1800 MhZ as reported by HWiNFO. It seems fine to relax a bit, though the readings might shift slightly. Appreciate the assistance!
