Your RAM is running at the default 2133Mhz. Long story short, that 2133Mhz is actually 1066Mhz, which is what is read by your system (see the first screenshot).

You have to go into your BIOS and turn on the extreme memory profile for the memory to run at 3600Mhz.

 

On Intel system you'll be looking for: XMP
On AMD systems it's called: XAMP

On AMD system with an ASUS motherboard: DOCP.

 

Turn that on and it should pick up the speed. Don't worry too much about those timings, unless you are knowledgeable in memory overclocking.

Yeah, thats a new feature of the later windows updates, instead of showing the actual double date rate (DDR) speed it now states the base speed. 

So as Minibois mentions, it's now running at the default of 2133mhz.

 

XMP from the Bios (on my MSI AMD mainboard its called XMP, not XAMP?) is one option, should have a profile 1 and 2, nr 2 is usually the max rated. The other option is to manually set it to 3600mhz in the same settings, i think you need to enable advanced settings tho.

Gamesystem: X3700, 32GB memory @3200mhz, GTX1080 Hybrid

Unraid system: Epyc 7352, 24/48, 96GB ECC buffered @2666mhz, 2x GT710, GTX1050Ti

it's working fine. those are it's default settings. 2133mhz at cas15.

 

you'll need to enable XMP in BIOS for it to run at 3600

thank you did it
