So i have mixed too different Frequency RAM. The two are 1600MHz and the other two are 3200MHz the problem is that now ALL the RAM operate at about 850MHz Peak and stressing my CPU more than it should after a bit of gaming. Can someone help, thank you all.(I have tested both the sets of RAM and they operate on the previous values with no need for overclocking)

850MH

What program are you using to get this number? Task Manager?

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.

When it comes to RAM, you'd expect the higher clocked RAM would just lower its frequency to match the other RAM modules but sometimes that just isn't the case. If you open up your bios, you may have access to more options where you can attempt to set the frequency manually though do not go over 1600Mhz as that will either cause it just not to work or for your RAM to attempt to clock up to match the new speed (which is pretty unlikely).
