MEMORY SPEED!!!!!!

[Miata13]

Can anyonr answer this question???

I just bought 512mb stick of PC2700 (333mhz) I am running it on a Abit IT7 / P4 2.24mhz (533 fsb)

b]When I run WCPUID I get a memory speed of 133.50mhz...Should I get a faster reading???[/b]

Is the memory of a lower grade?

thank you,

533 being 133.25 quad pumped, right? Like Athlon 266FSB is 133 double pumped.

I hoped that was right...thank you.

What threw me off was my PC at work has PC800 RAMBUS and it registers 400mhz as the memory speed.

Make sure you are using the correct ratio via the bios. For example I'm doing 533MHz FSB (133MHz quad), and 3:4 ratio for memory. So 177MHz double (or x2) = 354MHz DDR (PC3000).

Looks like you are doing 266MHz (though your RAM can do 333MHz).
