You're seeing a discrepancy because your system's BIOS or UEFI settings might be reporting a different speed than what 3DMark shows. The actual performance depends on your workload and how the hardware is being utilized.

Use CPU-Z to verify RAM speeds. It's interesting to see if the DDR4-4400 is genuine, given how challenging it is to achieve such high clock speeds with RAM.

What CPU system are you using? Usually, the same platforms that run this smoothly tend to be slower—often around 4400—compared to higher-end ranges like 3600 to 4000—due to memory controller settings. You might see better performance by accepting a slight reduction in speed. This figure reflects the GPU’s memory data rate, which is unrelated to your CPU’s typical performance.

It runs on an i5 10400f with turbo enabled, staying above 3.9GHz. Some games cause it to drop to around 2.9GHz.

The "MEM" reading refers to GPU memory. Use CPU-Z for verification. HWinfo is a more advanced tool with additional features.

The green value refers to GPU memory frequency, which aligns with what you suspected was the focus. The blue represents CPU RAM usage, and these are separate metrics for different purposes. This platform can handle 4400MT/s, though achieving speeds above 4000 is usually challenging unless using an Apex model. Great achievement reaching such a high clock speed!

It seems the speed limit is set too low for your i3, preventing it from reaching 4500 or higher.

The issue is about CPU RAM, not just speed. Can you check if there’s a way to see RAM speed using Afterburner? Also, thanks for sharing your 8th on 3Dmark results—I’m excited to learn more about OC!

I don't think so. It shouldn't shift while you run your setup unless you're using BCLK, which you won't on a locked 10th generation system. It's not very helpful to keep tracking it. If you're interested, you can run HWInfo in the background—it will display your memory frequency. Keep in mind it shows frequency, not actual data rate, so values like 4400MT/s will appear as 2200MHz because of double data rate. I'll proceed from there and experiment with the timings to see if you can improve your score.
