First of all, here are screenshots from the relevant part of my bios.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v252/BADMoJO/bios/I bought the following parts:
- Core2Duo E8400
- - - 3.0Ghz
- - - 1333FSB
- GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L Motherboard
- - - FSB: 1333
- - - Memory standard: 1066mhz
- OCZ Platinum Edition 4GB(2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1000 (PC2 8000)
- - - 1000Mhz
After installing all my parts, my post says the ram is running at 800Mhz. I run CPU-Z and it says my ram is running at 400.0 Mhz. It also says my CPU Bus speed is 333.3Mhz. It also says my CPU is running at 2Ghz.
This is driving me absolutely nuts.. all my parts are running at very low speeds.
If I try setting the System Memory Multiplier in the bios higher to give me the proper memory speed, I get BSOD's within 5 minutes of booting up.
Can someone tell me what I need to be setting all the options at to get my actual speeds correct? I also might want to mention i updated my bios to the latest beta hoping that would help.. no luck.
Many thanks in advance.
