Serious problem with my Dual Channel RAMs

[kosmiq]

Well Sisoft Sandra and the like reports the speed the memory are currently running at.

Like this:
Setting the memory to run at 166MHz Sandra will show (to your surprise) 333MHz DDR. OMG how did that happen? No idea.
Setting the memory to run at 180MHz will result in? OMG 360MHz DDR as reported by Sandra, POST and even nVidia System Utility (that can be used for windows overclocking btw)
Setting the memory to run at 200MHZ will give the correct result... Guess what? 400MHz DDR how can that be? No idea must be magic somehow... All apps reports the same.
Setting the memory to run att 225MHz will give 450MHz output no matter what the checking utility is...

So there is either magic going or all apps will show wrong.
Please give me the name of a good debugger that will show me the info you say me to look at and I will gladly test it and give screenshots.

Sorry for being a little negative there, no pun intented just felt like writing like that...

As I said Sisoft Sandra will not report CURRENT frequency..

And dont use that tone, or ill reply back in that tone.

I said "sorry for being a little negative here"...

And please no pun intended I don't mean to be offensive or anything only that I can't reply in a good manner after a period of time...

Anyway, please name the deubugger and I will check it out.

Just search the net for realtime memory debuggers, there are a few.

Some motherboards come with a clocking utility that shows the current speed of the ram. Try that also.

Well actually nVidia System Utility is a realtime overclocking utility made for nForce 2 chipsets among others.
I took the liberty of supplying a few screenshots here simply to give proof.

As you can see I am currently using 2gb RAM on my nForce 2 motherboard as shown by windows, POST and so on.
About speed, as you can see on the second picture (nVidia System Utility) the RAM frequency is currently 399MHz DDR @ CAS 2 with the other timings as you can see on the picture.

nVidia System Utility is a program developed by nVidia and is free for download. It supports real-time monitoring of voltages, speed and temperatures. It also supports real-time changing of voltage, FSB, Timings and more.

Aha thats not the frequency im talking about..

So we are both right in our debate..

I was talking about bus speed from Memory to CPU

[kosmiq]

Haha are you serious? We have been talking about different things the whole time? HAHA!!!!!

Then it is not strange that we had such disagreement...
Feels good to have that solved...

I had no idea the bus between CPU and mem was lowered when using 2gb of RAM on the other hand.

Now that this has been solved we can all be friends and nice again...
A little thought, lets say the communication between CPU and mem is 200MHz standard, gets lowered to 166MHz when using 2gb RAM then it should be easily solved by upping the speed to 201MHz.
On nForce 2 this speed is not changeable as far as I know but on the nForce 4 is should the HT-bus right?
