Hello, your system's RAM readings seem inconsistent. The BIOS shows a frequency of 1600 MHz, but Windows displays "8GB other" at 400 MHz. This discrepancy might be due to BIOS settings or driver issues. Ensure your motherboard supports the correct speed and verify the RAM is properly seated. If problems persist, check for firmware updates or consult ASUS support for compatibility.

Windows may not always display accurate data; CPU-Z provides the true frequency, which is 666.7 MHz. This corresponds to a 1333 MHz memory due to how DDR operates. The memory speed capabilities depend on the installed processor. Sempron/Athlon/Phenom models support 1067 MHz DDR3, whereas FX models can handle up to 1867 MHz.
