I bought a corsair 16 GB DDR4 3200 (CMK16GX4M2B3200C16W) set for my ASUS B450 mobo the mobo reports that they are 2133Mhz modules i enabled something pushed target 3200MHz now it says 3200Mhz ram speed but why does it still say they are 2133MHz modules is it running at 3200 MHz or is it just targeting

Have you done any testing in the OS? That might help you determine if the speed is correct.

Uh, well Id expect youd put the ram in A_1 and A_2 but I could be wrong?

If you have DOCP/XMP enabled they're running at their rated speed, don't worry about what the BIOS is showing there, the speed you see in CPUz in Windows is correct.

Most likely it will show the correct speed. This is probably just a BIOS readout issue. As long as you have the profile enabled, and the voltage set properly, it should be plug and play nothing else required.

? Looks good, it is indeed running 3200MHz in Windows.  Just a simple readout issue in BIOS.
