*sigh* Well atleast they work even if it's not as what they should be.
If your motherboard is really basic and don't read the profile, start by set 1600mhz, and enter the base timings as given by the constructor and voltage needed ( written on stickers on the rams itself )
> enter windows, read the timings using CPU-Z or other software ( HWinfo, memset etc ) ( most mb will report them too in bios ) for check if they are right or not. Enter bios, set 1600mhz, or 1333mhz ( if no choice ) all in auto, the bios will read the information on the ram and set all as the constructor have set them. If really the bios is " crap " : 2 solutions for known their timings at each speed as set by the constructor: If your ram is 2000mhz, you will surely not have any problem to use them, it's just as you OC them, but the ram will in reality be at stock speed. 2 timings, and 1333mhz is the speed of the safe operation. we was using 600-700mhz DDR1 on 333mhz max " supported " back in time.Īll DDR3 have at min. Your motherboard say 1333mhz support, but you can surely use 1600mhz without any problem, set 1600 in bios set the right voltage and you are good.
