The processor speed is limited to 2400 MHz despite purchasing a 3600 MHz model.
Hello, I just found out that my RAM is only running on 2400 MHz (I've bought my extra RAM with 3600 MHz a year ago...). But now I wanted to ask how could I "speed it up"? I've read that I need to do it in BIOS and I already tried that but with my BIOS I couldn't find the option to set it higher. I found the tab "Memory Information" which only tells me it's running at 2400 MHz but nothing more. Is there a way to fix that or do I have to buy a better Motherboard? (btw I also couldn't find XMP in the BIOS) Best Regards Specs: CPU: Motherboard: RAM:
You're asking about your motherboard model. It's often found under "XMP settings," though some manufacturers don't display it prominently due to their custom designs.
It's a Medion rebranding of the ECS board. I couldn't locate details on the official ECS website, only an eBay listing.
Received the ECS Z370H4-EM mainboard with chipset 1151. Not sure if this resolves anything. Identical to the one referenced by @SorryBella.
I'll repeat your quote later. I'll capture the image right away.
You need to adjust settings in the CPU section. There’s nothing else I can do.
Did you remove the 2400 sticks? Your PC's RAM speed will match the slowest DIMMs installed. Check the setup options, explore further. Remember, your CPU supports only DDR4-2666, so expect that limit.
Additionally, using the Intel 8000 line doesn't significantly impact performance since it doesn't run at the maximum CPU speed.
