Title: GA-8i945PL-G DDRII 533mhz ram?
Post by: ninesvnsicks on February 07, 2010, 09:39:29 pm

Hi I have 2gb of 533mhz ram 4 x 512mb and in the manual it says when you use all 4 dimm slots it will be reduced to 400mhz why is this?  Is there a way to get teh correct 533mhz with this config?

I think its a chipset limitation i'm afraid. If you wanted the faster speed but with 2GB RAM you would need 2 x1GB sticks
