Ram Underclocked

I got a program called "CAM" to see all the temps and voltages and fan speeds. I used my motherboard to "auto" preformance mode oc but I didn't like the 90C I was getting on my cpu so I went back to "normal" mode, but I noticed that my ram was at 1333MHz instead of the 1866MHz that they are stock at. Did I do something wrong?

you need to go into your BIOS and turn on your XMP profile to run the ram at 1866. By default, intel only officially supports 1333mhz out of the box for DDR3.

1333Mhz is the standard DDR3 frequency; you'll likely have to go into your BIOS and turn on XMP (it might have turned off after turning off the OC mode).

Ok I will do that. Thank you both!
