I just built a new PC, It is an intel P4 3.06mhz on an MSI 865PE MotherBoard, I purchased 2 GB (4x512) of 400 MHZ RAM. Problem is, no matter where I look, BIOS, SiSoft Sandra 2003, or on Windows, can I see that I truly have 400 mhz ram. Anywhere where the ram speed would normally be posted, it says n/a or unknown. I question it, because although it says it is DDR 400 on the sticker on the ram, the ram was not in it's original packaging when I bought it. I just don't want to be ripped of, as I paid for 400, not 333. Any advice would be great!
Thanxage
