Important Cmx4gx3m2a1600c9 with msi a75ma-g55

Hello,
I've got those motherboard and Ram yesterday,
But the Motherboard default Run it at 1333.

Does anyone know how to manual set the Spd to 1600,
Example: the voltage and DRAM Timing Mode

Thanks very much!

Tommy

Default

The memory will run at 1600 with XMP enabled (only for Intel) but since you are on an AMD system, you’ll need to manually change the settings. I recommend checking your manual or contacting the motherboard manufacturer if you are unsure on how to proceed. You may also experience stability issues at 1600mhz as your CPU has native support only for 1333. We have found that unlike Intel, AMD processors have very little headroom when it comes to over clocking beyond the native speed except on the 8120 and 8150 FX processors. If you experience instability, you may have to reset the settings back to 1333.
