DDR5 Ram running in low speed

[Jithendiran]

Ok, I will do that,if nothing I found I try write a custom program to test the bandwidth

I confirmed in bios screen it showed as 5200 but i don't have any tool to test the bandwidth from BIOS

So in theory for 5600MHz max of 44.1GBps , Since my setting is only for 5200 MHz max of 41.6 GBps I can achieve
I have to get atleast 40+GBps
Am I correct?

If you enabled the EXPO/XMP and the settings did not revert during POST, then it seems like a false reading. You might have to look for another way to confirm it, either by dual booting WinPE and one of the usual tools or keep looking for a different way to do the same with Linux.

Edit: Your motherboard might also report the actual memory frequency in the UEFI and during POST, if you disable the boot screen (and pause at the right moment).

I'm using Linux, i don't have cpu-z
I believe this will help

# lshw -c memory

Do you have CPUz? Can you share the Memory and SPD tabs?

[Jithendiran]

Yes
Latest stable build

[GSKILL TECH]

Are you using the latest BIOS/UEFI?

[Jithendiran]

I'm using
CPU: AMD 8600G
Mother board :MSI PRO B650-S WIFI
yes it is installed in primary slot A2

Tested software is capable only I think, because I tested with custom script that also results the same

[emissary42]

Did you enable the EXPO/XMP?

Make sure the motherboard is compatible and the modules are installed in the two primary DIMM slots. Then enter the UEFI and enable the performance profile.

Afterwards software should report a DRAM frequency of 2800 MHz (if it is capable to read it correctly for DDR5).

Hi team
i'm using 16 GB DDR5 RAM, 5600 MHz
but it's clock speed is low

```
# lshw -c memory

product: F5-5600J3636C16G
vendor: Unknown

```
expected clock speed is 2800 MHz
