new pc, need help on RAM mhz BIOS setting

I just build a new pc and I am doing the BIOS setting right now.

I have 3200mhz RAM but it's showing as 2133mhz so I enabled XMP according to the instructions on forum.

Under "XMP" it says 'Enabled' and also 'XMP DDR4-3200' which i assume ram is now changed from default 2133mhz to 3200mhz.

However, the above section called "DRAM Status", it still shows as 'Corsair 16384MB 2133MHZ' for each of my 2 16GB RAM sticks. I attached the photo.

Do i just ignore the "DRAM Status" RAM mhz numbers? Is my ram changed to 3200mhz or not yet?

Thanks in advanced!5.jpg.39e5f5d5396c6d713a177d6a11da3e4c.jpg

Hello,

 

Install CPU-Z and look at the Memory panel, if you see 1600MHz, it means your ram is running at the XMP profile (3200MHz).

Just reboot and check with TaskManager or CPU-Z like @Plouffe. Once selected and saved in bios it should be fine
