Trapped at 2133 again.

Updated RAM module (G.Skill Trident Z Neo 3600 Cl16 2x16Gb) and activated XMP profiles on the motherboard/bios. Checked Task Manager, but it still shows 2133. Uncertain if Task Manager is the right tool for speed checks or if I'm configuring RAM correctly. RAM slots 1 and 3 are installed, unsure of their purpose. Please advise if this is correct or if you have suggestions to improve performance. Thanks a lot! My PC parts list is attached. Edited March 21, 2024 by YoLige

Install RAM in slots 2 and 4 (A2 B2) as per the manual. This setup works in dual channel mode. Re-enable XMP again. If it fails to appear after moving the RAM, reset CMOS.

Sure, I'm here to help. CMOS refers to a type of integrated circuit used in microcontrollers and other electronic devices. It stands for Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor. Let me know if you need more details!

Review the manual carefully and start by relocating the RAM. Make sure to power down the PSU before doing so.

Great news! The fix worked—moved the RAM and turned on XMP in BIOS. Everything is functioning properly. Task manager shows it’s starting at 3600. You're doing a good job!
