The memory is working fine.

 

The fastest speed your notebook's processor can run the memory at is limited to 2933 MHz.

 

Dual channel speed = 1466 MHz x 2 = 2932 MHz.

 

The memory will never be reported to run at 2933 MHz.

 

You have to do the math in your head.

 

If you run the free utility that I zipped up and attached below, it will show you the memory is running in dual channel mode in the middle section of the summary report.

 

If the memory was running in single channel mode (for example only one memory chip installed), then it would be running at 1466 MHz.
