Hi. My first post here
im having problems trying to set my ram to 2133mhz. here is my system:
Intel Core i5 4690K
G.Skill RipjawsX DDR3 2x4GB 2133MHz CL9 (http://www.gskill.com/en/product/f3-17000cl9d-8gbxm)
Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 5
Sapphire r9 390
And now, ive enabled the xmp profile 1 in the bios but that only changed timings.
Frequency is still at 1600mhz. Why is that? am i missing something ? is something from my build not compatible with that frequency?
please help
🙁

Yes, the multiplier. Before you start, ensure your frequency and timings align with the information on G.Skill's website.

Check for multiple instances of XMP.

check if there are additional XMP entries.
yes, there is also profile 2, though it only slightly alters the timing (from the advanced section).
also, the frequency is not visible.

I don't see the picture. But adjust the XMP 1 and tweak the ratio settings to check if you achieve the target frequency.

I can't view the image. Just set the XMP 1 and adjust the ratio settings to check your desired frequency.
