Why's my ram going so slow?

Isn't DDR3200 supposed to go twice that speed?

Thats the CPU tab, pc3200 is DDR400, runs at 200 double data rate=400

ya, I realized that just after I posted

unless you have clocked it down to 166. If its running at 200 its right!

Isn't it supposed to run at 400mhz? Or Does CPU-Z mean 200mhz x 2(ddr)

Yuep, no problem. The actual frequency is 200mhz, but the effective frequency is 400. Same goes with video cards and there memory speeds.
