How can I tune 2666MHz for my DDR4 memory in my HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-1033ur?

[danilka232]

Hi! I needed to change my default DDR4 memory to Patriot Viper DDR4 3600 MHz in my HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-1033ur. I understand that it is impossible to tune 3600 MHz but I see only 2166 Mhz... How to fix 2666 Mhz at least which is supported my proccesor (Intel i5 10100) and I see in the specification of my PC https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c07045266

Its specs

              https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c07045266

It supports  GB DDR4-2666 SDRAM and no option for you to run higher speed.

Regards.

Yes, I understand it, but now speed of my memory is just 2166 Mhz...not 2666 Mhz. Why? What can I do to increase speed till 2666 Mhz?

@danilka232,

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

Your HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-1033ur fitted with the HP Baker motherboard (SSID: 8767) -please confirm, can run/support DDR4 RAM up to 2933 MHz.

Looking at Baker SSID 8767 motherboard-fitted rigs here: https://www.userbenchmark.com/System/HP-Pavilion-Gaming-Desktop-TG01-1xxx/195603, there is only one -maybe two different RAM that will run at 2933 MHz:

1.) Hynix HMA81GU6DJR8N-XN 2x8GB, such as sold here: https://www.newegg.com/hynix-8gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/0RN-00BX-000E9

2.) Samsung M378A2G43AB3-CWE 2x16GB, such as sold here: https://www.newegg.com/samsung-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/0RN-001H-01WX1?Description=Samsung%20M378A2....

Hope this was helpful.

Thank you for information. You mean that only couple of DDR4 modules are compatible with my HP Baker motherboard (SSID: 8767) and can be run at 2933 MHz, but why and how does it work? Why others modules can't be run even 2666Mhz?

@danilka232,

Your question is why some (most) RAM doesn't perform as well as it could/should on HP platforms, whilst other RAM does?

Part of the answer lies in the fact that HP is discouraging their computer users on the hardware level to 'freelance' -that is swapping computer parts that they haven't checked out for compatibility, performance and reliability.

The main point is, though: it is what it is. We have learned by trial & error which RAM, for example, works and which ones don't.

There's really nothing else to say.
