You're experiencing a mismatch between your RAM's actual speed and the settings on your motherboard. The BIOS is configured for 2133MHz, but your RAM is only running at 1066MHz. This could be due to incorrect BIOS settings or a faulty RAM module. Check the RAM specifications in the manual, ensure the correct speed is selected, and verify the motherboard's support for your RAM type. If the issue persists, test with different RAM modules or consult ASUS support.

1066 refers to a location, but the term ddr means double data rate and it operates at 2133.

However, your dual DDR4 RAM isn't operating at the expected 2133MHz—it's running at 1064MHz instead.

I saw it in a source mentioning DDR as double data rate, calculating 1064 times 2 equals 2128. It seems a small discrepancy, but that’s okay.

Certainly, many producers now accurately describe the memory speed using terms like "mega transfers" (MT/s) rather than the confusing MHz units.

While using cpu-z it shows 104.9mhz for both RAM on your motherboard, which can cause lag when just having Google Spotify and Discord running.

You're asking why you prefer your RAM to operate at 2133 MHz instead of the default 1064.9 MHz. This could relate to performance, stability, or compatibility with specific hardware or applications.
