Corsair Vengeance ram running @ 1333mhz

Hi,people

Okay,so i saw that there's a another thread like mine. But our motherboards aren't the same chipset.

Here's my specifications.

Intel Core i5 2400
Intel DH67CL Motherboard
1 x 4 GB Corsair Vengeance Ram

The ram's supposed to be running at 1600 mhz but in the bios it shows 1333mhz.

There is an option in the bios where i can change the ram multiplier. But the only options i have are '8 DDR3 1066' and '10 DDR3 1333Mhz'? :mrgreen:

Does it have something to do with my motherboard's lameness?

refer to your motherboard manual. It says:

• Support for DDR3 1333 MHz and DDR3 1066 MHz DIMMs
• Support for 1 Gb, 2 Gb, and 4 Gb memory technology
• Support for up to 32 GB of system memory with four DIMMs using 4 Gb
memory technology

So 1600Mhz is not compatible with this board. You use 4 GB memory but with highest frequency of 1333.

Hence the board has downgraded the 1600 to 1333.

H67 motherboard can't run any RAM over 1333MHz.
That's why you can't run it at 1600MHz speed.

Ahhh...well..I can't expect more than this at this price point....
