Ram speed

[Protomb]

Hello! I own a HP gaming pavilion desktop. I have a ryzen 5 3600 and a RTX 4060. 

I have 2 sticks of ram each 8gb. They are G.skill and are suppose to be 3200. For  some reason, in task manager it only goes to 2133. I tried to enter BIOs but don’t see an option there.

@Protomb , welcome to the Community.

The standard speed of memory is 2133 MHz.  HP doesn't use XMP's to overclock their memory.  They set the BIOS to use the JEDEC speed in the memory they install.  Therefore, you will have to use a third-party app to overclock the memory if it can be done.

Hi @Protomb 

I don't know what PC you have unless you provide a specific HP Product Number.

Many HP PCs don't have XMP or DOCP memory overclocking options in the UEFI.

Specific memory modules provided by HP will run at higher speeds but they are very difficult to find. I have heard HP may be discontinuing after market sales of consumer PC components such as memory or power supplies.

So you might have to look at eBay, or Amazon, and else where for HP replacement parts using the product number on the HP memory modules.
