Hi:

Your memory is running in dual channel mode which is 1333 MHz for your PC.

Your report indicates the memory is running at 666 MHz.

You have to multiply that by two when you have 2 x 4 GB of memory installed (since it is running in dual channel mode) to arrive at the 1333 dual channel speed.

With one memory chip the memory does run at 666 MHz (the single channel mode speed).

The free HWINFO utility has a summary report that will report that the memory is running in dual channel mode.

It will still report the memory clock speed at 666 MHz.

  I use the portable version.

As long as the memory is running in dual channel mode, then everything is fine.
