Hello, it seems there could be an issue with your memory performance. The system uses an older motherboard, but you've set it up for 2933mHz via XMP and BIOS. Despite that, it's only reporting 1463mHz. The specs suggest support for higher speeds, so the problem might lie in compatibility or outdated firmware. You may need to check the motherboard documentation for OC requirements or consider updating your BIOS. Overclocking isn't necessary if the hardware supports it natively.

Your processing speed is operating at 1467 MHz, while the double data rate increases it to 2933 MHz.

Your PC's RAM clock is fine. DDR means double data rate, which essentially doubles the data transfer per clock cycle, making it run twice as fast—this often causes confusion among users.
