2 x 512 ddr ram (400Mhz) runing at 333Mhz
      #303714 - Wed Sep 06 2006 09:34 PM

I have 2 x 512MB pc3200 ddr(400Mhz)ram, running in dual chanel. But the bios shows curent ddr speed 333 Mhz. But if i put each of them seperatly and boot the bios shows curent ddr speed 400Mhz. Does anyone now how to fix this or is this normal? I have updated my bios and it didn`t help.

My system: Mobo:ga-k8nf-9(rev.1) dual chanel, Processor:amd athlon64 3000+, Gfx:geforce 7600gt, HDD:seagate baracuda 160gb

Thanks in advance for any replys!

PS: Sorry for my english.

Have a look in your BIOS and see if you can change your RAM settings from auto-detect and set it to 400mhz.

OK OK I can't go any faster! aaaaaaaaaaaagh!

well i have ddr clock/timing mode option wich can be set to manual and than cpu/ddr clock ratio wich is 2/1.66 and ddr timing mode 2.5T,7T,3T,3T,2T,10T,4T and the refresh rate option wich is now set to 166Mhz,7.8us. But i can set it to 200Mhz not 400Mhz, if that will give me 400Mhz since is ddr ram 2x200Mhz??? And i also have to choose betwen 15.6us or 7.8us or 3.9us with 200Mhz option and i dont know wich to pick. what is "us"? latency??

I'm afraid it's getting a bit beyond me. Does this help?
