Medion AKYOA P67075 RAM upgrade

[patD]

Hello,
I have a Medion AKYOA P67075 (MSN 10023704) and I wanted to upgrade the memory from the original 2 x 8GB RAM to 2 x 16 GB RAM but after installing the new RAM my computer emits 3 beeps when restarting so I guess the new memory is incompatible.

Here is the info of the original memory
Samsung M378A1G44AB0-CWE 8GB DDR4 3200MHz PC4-25600 1.2V 1Rx16 288 Pin UDIMM PC4-25600 1.2V 1 Rx1 Desktop RAM Memory Module

Here is the info of the new memory (photo attached):
SK Hynix HMA82GR7DJR8N - 16GB 2Rx8 PC4 32000MHz

Have I bought the wrong memory? Any suggestion would be very welcome.

Many thanks,
Patrick

Hello @patD 

apparently the information in the database is incorrect.

According to it, only 2666 MHz is possible with the B460H6-EM board.

However, your image, which has now been released, suggests otherwise. 

This should be checked.

Hello Fishtown,

I have checked Task Manager > Performance > Memory and the Speed reads 2667 MHz which fits with the motherboard information.

I guess the following memory should work (photo attached).

Samsung 16gb (16GB x 2) 32gb total DDR4 PC4-2666V M378A2K43 PC RAM

Many thanks for your help.

Hi @patD 

there is nothing against it: https://geizhals.de/samsung-dimm-16gb-m378a2k43cb1-ctd-a1779434.html

the RAM supports up to 3200 MHz, but the motherboard doesn't:

Please check your computer's specifications under "Motherboard (MB ECS B460H6-EM)" in your link.

There, under "Memory Support," it states: maximum DDR4 2666 MHz.

There is some misunderstanding in the above statement. 

You can put  DDR4 RAM with the speed 3200 MHz in, but the board only utilizes a lower speed. 

As I wrote  already in my former post. 

That's what your original RAM also proves.

This picture  is not proving anything, except your 3200 MHz RAM offers the mentioned Jedec speeds up  to 1600 MHz. Also lower Jedec speeds, which means round about 1300 MHz to suite your chipset and mainboard. To see the actual speed you have to check the memory page.

An I do suppose you knew that page, which gives the correct speed your board utilizes. But seeing the possible sped in the Jedec listing you got a bit greedy. But read my post 8 again.

And be aware because  it is a DDR (Double Data Rate), RAM,  the working speed therefore is doubled.

Also my B460 board works with a 3200 MHz RAM, at 2600 MHz ( Jedec ~1300) maximum speed.

Below in this statement the same error, CPU-Z shows on your CPU-Z page  the Jedec specifications. To see the actual  ram speed check on page memory:

However, you should check the "SPD" tab under "Displayed Frequency"; this corresponds to the actual clock speed at the time of measurement.

This OEM motherboard supports a maximum of 2666 MHz

 Yes, it drives the built in3200 MHz RAM, but  at 2600 MHz only.
