RAM SPEED

[Shal3R]

Hello. I have Erazer engineer x10 MD35036

Today i noticed that my 3200Mhz original RAM runs only with 2900Mhz

so im wondering if this Medion Motherboard even supports 3200Mhz RAM ?

It should run at 3200Mhz.. How to fix it ? Cuz in bios i can't see manual option to do changes.

Ram frequency is dictated by CPU and cannot (shouldn't) be changed.

RAM banks are made to support different frequency as the CPU ask for it. Meaning you can use the existing RAM if you decide to change the CPU with a model which require 3200Mhz

Hi, thanks for answer.

I see that this CPU Memorry support is 2933 and 3200 Mhz but it runs only at 2933 even while gaming.

So i will ask again. does this motherboard support 3200Mhz RAM ?

So far im disapointed of My gaming machine.

1. PSU under load is terrable sound - sounds like JET.

2. RAM is CL21 and it's terrable. should be CL16 at least.

3. Motherboard: cuz im sure that it's not supporting 3200Mhz RAM cuz CPU supports it and you can't do much in BIOS.

Supports and Run are 2 different things. 

1. Fan speed have nothing to do with RAM frequency 

2. Yes, CAS Latency 21 CL is not best option for a gaming computer (shouldn't be an option for any modern computer). Again, have nothing to do with RAM Frequency

3. A RAM 3200 MHZ would simply NOT WORK on a MB which doesn't support that frequency.

Current working frequency is set by the CPU and unless you change the CPU with one which require 3200 MHZ is nothing you can do about it. Your CPU decide the RAM frequency and have only 2 states: work as intended or not at all.

@Shal3R 

The CPU could control RAM with 3200 MHz, but it is limited by the Mainboard and its settings in the OEM-Bios, wherein the max speed is set to 2932 MHz only. This is for safety reasons.

So you can do nothing about it. And buying a new CPU would be a nuisance, because your CPU can handle 3200 MHz RAM.

i know that it can run ir at 3200Mhz it's just a bad motherboard.

I just Ordered a new midtower for ATX with MSI Z590 PRO motherboard / 3200Mhz 32GB RAM CL16 and 850w GOLD PSU

I just realise that i spend for this PC 1700Euro and usable things is only Processor and GPU.. everything else is garabge
