Hello, I'm having an issue where I go into bios it will let me pick only 2933mhz in the ram frequency. I tried it to see if it ran it does stutter and lag in games and seems to stress my cpu a little more. But I'm unsure really if I should just get 2x8gb of ram instead of using the 4x4gb or if there's maybe a certain setting I need to set in the bios. I'm not 100% on computer knowledge but I will do my best to understand thank you and I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas! I'll put my specs below. Cpu: i5-6500 Gpu : GTX 1070 Mobo : MSI Z10a m3 Ram: G Skill Ripjaws 4x4gb 3000 mhz

The XMP Profile is activated in the BIOS.

I've also tried turning it on, but it still only goes up to 2933 MHz.

Manually boost your RAM speed to 3000 MHz

I understand this might be complex, but I can try to simplify. Overclocking RAM involves adjusting its speed settings beyond the default limits. You’d typically use software tools to increase the clock speed, ensuring your system remains stable during the process.

it's just 67 MHz, not too big

The frequency difference is negligible between 2933 and 3000mhz.
