Yo I have just bought a new pc3200 512mb ram stick. On top of that I also have two other pc3200 ram sticks, one consisting of 512mb and the other 256mb. Since pc3200 is suppost to work at 400mhz speed, why is it showing on cpuz under memory frequency its only working at 133mhz. I understand that in ddr you multiply that number to get the correct frequency you are using, but that would only make it 266mhz, and that is pc2300. So why am i not using the full speed of my ram?
Also if this helps I would list all the ram sticks names and correct frequencys.

If you take the new stick out, does it revert back to 400mhz? If so, then you might have a defective stick. Just return it and they will send you another.
