Displaying inaccurate frequency readings on your system's memory.
Hey there, new PC builder! Your setup sounds solid with those 4x8GB DDR4 sticks at 3000Hz. The fact that benchmarks are showing 2133Hz might be due to the system clock settings or cache behavior. If you want to see the full potential, try adjusting your BIOS or using a different benchmark. For changing the memory speed, you’ll need to use the motherboard’s BIOS settings—look for memory timings and ensure they match your sticks. Good luck with your build!
Sure, I'm ready to assist. What kind of processor are you looking at? Let me check the BIOS details and see if we can adjust the frequency accordingly.
Enable XMP/DOCP settings in your BIOS to reach memory speeds of 3000mhz. Typically, most systems default to 2133mhz.
Your Ryzen 7 3700X now runs at a stable 3.6Ghz thanks to XMP settings. The BIOS offers three profiles—disable, profile 1, and profile 2. Whether you choose one over another usually doesn’t affect performance much, as long as the settings meet your needs.
Shouldn't matter no. Select one and see what it does. But likely not much difference between them, if any.
From disabled to either profile 1 or 2, it displays the Hz shift from 2133 to 3000. Apart from that, nothing else alters. It seems to exist to store two distinct profiles if you tailor it yourself. Either way, everything is resolved. Appreciate your fast replies and assistance.
Hey there, sorry for the confusion—I was actually asleep. You're free to choose any profile you like.
They should pick the version matching the RAM speed ratings. My old MSI BIOS used to have much tighter settings, and it kept crashing after a while. The other profile had proper timing and didn’t fail. Now the newest BIOS matches both profiles, so timing shouldn’t be an issue. Even if there are slight differences, MSI BIOS usually handles it well.
