Ram thermal throttling?

Go to solution Solved by Space Reptile,

i mean it says its 3000 ram , the clock is the base ram clock wich is always multiplied by 2 , so it is running at 3000mhz 

My ram is supposed to be at 3000 MHz but in cpuid it says the memory clock is only 1500 mhz. pls help

DDR4-3000 doesn't run at 3000 MHz, it runs at 1500 MHz with a Double Data Rate of 3000 MT/s. Companies inaccurately advertise the MT/s figure as the MHz because they want the bigger number and most consumers have no idea what MT/s means.

So does that mean my ram is running like it is supposed to?
