so I just finished a test boot on a PC everything is working fine. however the 2 sticks of 2133Mhz Corsair Dominator platinums arent being detected at the correct frequency. the system has no OS yet. The RAM is being detected at 1333Mhz How do I fix this? I have an MSI Z97 gaming 7 board with a 4690k in it if that helps

Go to RAM settings and find the dropdown for XMP profiles. Then just select the correct profile

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

you have to change the ram frequency in the bios, I believe that Bios has an option to just choose the ram profile. Just change that and you're done.

i changed it but it didnt save the setting. i.e i changed it then rebooted the system it was still at 1333Mhz. Do i need to finish installing an OS for it to save?
