The RAM isn't functioning properly during manual overclocking.
Hello,
I recently attempted to manually overclock my DDR4 RAM using a 3733 refresh rate and specific timings. The overclock appeared stable, but upon checking in BIOS it showed the RAM running at 3333 MHz. This contradicts the BIOS settings which indicated 3733 MHz, and also differs from the result when using the command prompt in Windows. I checked my BIOS settings again and confirmed the refresh rate was set to 3733 MHz. Additionally, CPU-Z reported 3333 MHz, while I expected the RAM to match the settings I provided. I’m confused about this discrepancy and would appreciate any guidance.
Specs:
i5-6600K @4.5GHz 1.35 volts
GIGABYTE AORUS Z270x gaming K7 motherboard
16GB G.Skill Trident-Z (XMP set to 3200MHz)
