Just got my new rig together

AMD FX-55 Coupled with OCZ EL Platinum Revision 2 Dual Channel (2x512) Memory.

When I boot and its checking the memory it read 'memory clock speed 200Mhz'
Is this correct? I know I should know this but I just wanna make sure.

If not how and what should be corrected.

Thanks!
 
DDR memory speed explained.

"Memory Speed:

Technically, the DDR memory bus runs at memory-bus clock rate of 100MHz for PC1600, 133MHz for PC2100, 166MHz for PC2700, 200MHz for PC3200, 233MHz for PC3700, and 266MHz for PC4200. However, each DDR memory module and memory chip run at an effective (data) rate of 200MHz, 266MHz, 333MHz, 400MHz, 466MHz and 533MHz respectively. The computer industry has adopted a practical convention of just referring to the data rate as the DDR DIMM speed. So, PC1600 DIMMs are said to run at 200MHz, PC2100 DIMMs at 266MHz, PC2700 DIMMs at 333MHz, PC3200 DIMMs at 400MHz, PC3700 DIMMs at 466MHz and PC4200 DIMMs at 533MHZ"
