? Is this false advertising by a big name Memory vendor?

I am no expert on memory but something seems amiss.

This kit seems to correlate and be correct:


This is the kit I am curious about. The above CPUz & HW Info shots share correlating timings, this one below doesn't. Both were set to XMP profiles. After I recognized the difference I manually went in and set the timings while the XMP profile was still enabled and still the same thing:

If you manually set timings and the two pieces of software still disagrees, then IMO it is detecting it wrong. Or, maybe one is detecting what is set in the SPD/XMP, while the other may be detecting what the motherboard is actually running it at?

Are there any other apps that read memory timings?

Even with XMP profiling disabled on both machines and everything set manually, HWinfo still says XMP profiling is enabled giving the same readings and results while CPUz says the timing are 7.7.7.21 2T.

CPUz shows what is actually happening. I'm pretty sure the HWinfo is showing whatever is programmed into the XMP profile on the DIMM.

The only thing I see different is 1T vs 2T command rate, is that what I should be seeing? CPUz saying 1T and HWinfo saying 2T?
tRFC is shown in different units on the two applications, 74 cycles is 111 ns. Only thing I'm seeing different is 1T and 2T.

CPU-Z is correct.

However, so is if HWiNFO if you click on the Memory tab, instead of the individual RAM "rows" like you are in your screenshot.

See my screenshot of where to see current RAM speed/timings.

Is it the memory vendor you're asking about or the memory manufacturer?
