1600 mhz ram running at 1333 mhz

nice ram! what you have to do is go into the bios and manually set it at 1600mhz. lower the timings as well and up the ram vcore slightly to be safe. once u reach 1600mhz, overclock ur cpu and up its vcore. finally overclock ur ram!
 
he doesnt want to overclock he wants to get 1600mhz from his ram...

i know my motherboard has a feature called XMP which clocks my 1333mhz ram up to 1600mhz without any messing around, just find it in your settings and enable it (i have not researched much into if it does work like 1600mhz ram)

you will have to go into your bios and go into the overclocking section, put the ram timings in as they are supposed to be-check the timings of your ram and the voltage from the manufacturers website or any other good source and put the settings as gskill advise
 
The bios just boots it at JEDEC standards. You just need to set it in the bios to 800/1600, which ever way it is. Then set the timimg to 8-8-8-24 and the voltage to 1.6V
 
Thanks guys.
my mobo has a lot of o.c features such as TurboV EVO and auto system level up but dont really need them.
just want ram to run at the speed its advertised as.
ill have a look at bios and get back to u:good:
 
cheers guys.
went into bios and found ram frequency was set to auto so changed it to 1600.
i thought there'd be some more tweaking involved:)
 
nah its usually easy, just if you get blue screens you might want to look into the voltage on the ram-i had a problem with mine and it took a little tweek and hey presto
