I have a Pentium 4 - 3.4, on a Asus P5P800 motherboard, and have 1 Gb of ram installed.
The problem? When I boot the computer It always says 400 Mhz Dual Channel Linear mode, but today, I upgraded the ram to 2 Gb's using the same rating as my present ram (PC 3200 - 512 Mb's, DDR400 - single sided 184 pin DIMM OEM), and NOW when I boot the computer it states "320 Mhz (NOT 400 AS BEFORE), and Dual Channel Linear mode. IS THIS NORMAL? or should I be concerned? I thought that it should always say 400 MHZ, not drop to 320 like that (especially with an upgrade). The only physical difference is that the NEW ram has chips on only ONE SIDE. Does this matter? What should I do?
Please help!
