I m having issue with ram speed. I m using Corsair vengeance DDR4 3000mhz ram. Task manager and cpu-z shows the speed as 1500mhz but the bios is showing the speed as 3000mhz. I m using a MSI b450 Pro vdh plus motherboard. I don't know which one is right. This problem arose after updating to windows 10 version 1909 and before updating the speed was 3000mhz. Can someone help me to understand the problem?

That's normal, 3000MHz is data rate, 1500MHz is operating frequency. DDR memory sends data twice per clock cycle

And what's single module and double module in ram and does it affect the speed? Mine is single module

it's "single channel" and "dual channel", quad, hexa and more are a thing for workstations and servers. Its concept is like RAID 0, running two channels together on the same work for in theory double the speed
