DDR2 Problem.

[Python]

Hi there.

I recently purchased this ram - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-090-CR

My old ram was just, well, old and slow.

My motherboard defo supports 800Mhz, becuase I checked in the manual. Cpu-z is telling me this -

Please help me? I dont actually know what the hell to do. Its basicly saying the ram is only 399mhz. It says the max bandwith is 400. This is what I dont understand. What am i doing wrong guys?

Thanks in advance.

Right, so it is running at 800MHz then?

Be patient with me, im new to this PC building stuff.

Yes, this catches a lot of people out including myself quite often.

If you want to know more about DDR2, read my guide.

Thanks for the guide. Do you know how, if i need too, set my FSB ratio to 1:1 ?
