In the photo you can see your RAM is 1066 MHz, while your motherboard (Gigabyte H110 S5 V) only supports 2133–2400 MHz. Your RAM runs at a lower frequency but still works. You might want to check if it’s compatible or consider upgrading. Good luck! Smile

1066 and 2133 are approximately equivalent. DDR stands for double data rate.

It's accurate that 2133 operates at MT/s (mega transfers per second), not MHz. However, manufacturers often list it in MHz for simplicity, while the real speed is actually half of that value—approximately 1066 MHz.
