Sonic5317 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Hey guys, just having a few problems with my new RAM Now when upgrading the RAM i also upgraded my board as my old one died so i made the move to DDR3 but now when running programs that i used to run with my old board and memory they lag horribly to the point where the whole app will crash and all other including windows media player will freeze too until the high powered app is closed..or well force closed :/ Now this memory is supposed to be a stock clock of 1600Mhz however my board is under clocking it to 1333MHz I can change this to 1600MHz with manual settings..but I still get the epic lag on my apps. Any help would be very appreciated :) - New Specs CPU: AMD Phenom 1055T X6 @ 2.8GHz RAM: Corsair Vengance 16GB Motherboard: GIGABYTE: GA-990XA-UD3 Graphics: ATI Radeon 4890 PSU: Corsair 800GS -Old Specs (things ran fine) CPU: AMD Phenom 1055T X6 @ 2.8GHz RAM: ******** ******** 4GB @ 800mhz Motherboard: GIGABYTE: GA-MA770-UD3 Graphics: ATI Radeon 4890 PSU: 600W psu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted October 4, 2011 Corsair Employee Share Posted October 4, 2011 Your CPU only supports DDR1333 and why its running at that speed to run it higher you would need to over clock the CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
