Specs :
AMD Athlon X2 5600+ STOCK (Brisbane)
2x1Gb Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800Mhz Ram (4-4-4-12)
GA-MA770-DS3 Motherboard

(The RAM is running at 2.1v by default and required no Voltage adjustment when i installed them)

Problem :

Well i've just opened up CPUZ and had a little look around, and came across my DRAM frequency being at 364Mhz instead of the 400Mhz (DDR2) it is advertised at. I figured this was something to do with my CPU but what puzzles me is that, yesterday my DRAM Frequency was at 400Mhz and not 364Mhz, so how would it just change by itself? and how do i get my RAM back to working at 400Mhz?

As said, i have done no overclocking what so ever, i haven't been snooping around in the BIOS or anything like that.

CPU-Z Screenies.





 
So would i have to lower the multi to 14x giving me 2.8Ghz?, ive never overclocked before as you could probably tell but i'd be willing to give it a shot. How would i go about overclocking my cpu around 100mhz?, would it give any better results?

edit: Sorry, just read it again, makes sense now :P
