Having Trouble with reaching a higher ram speed than 2133MHZ

[tyler068]

Ok one more question, is 8gb running at 2666’mhz better than 32gb running at 2133mhz?

@tyler068,

Well, between these two options, 32GB running at 2133 MHz...

Kind regards,

Ok so I got the new ram and is 2666mhz the max it will go? Because I tried 2933mhz and pc wouldn’t boot up?

@tyler068,

Please give me the product number of your new RAM, and what processor you got.

Kind Regards,

Intel i5 10400 ram product number is kf432c16bbk2

@tyler068,

The max RAM speed of an i5-10400 is 2666 MHz:

Your Kingston FURY KF432C16BBK2/16 RAM kit is adjusting from its default (JEDEC) 2400 MHz RAM speed to 2666 MHz, which shows that this RAM is not getting stuck at its default (SPD) RAM speed.  Nevertheless, somehow your PC should be able to run this RAM to at least 2933 MHz (XMP Profile #2?), as I have seen Users being able to do that.
