Is something wrong with my RAM?

[Xarganthos]

pardon my english i dont know exactly how to phrase this..

i buyed a Corsair 8gb DDR3-1600 Kit (CMX8GX3M2A1600C9, XMS3)
its 2x 4gb Vengeance (CL 9, 9-9-9-24, PC3-12800)

now, CPU-Z shows me the following:

DRam Frequency 668
PC3-10700H

dont know what all that means but i'm a little bit worried xD

It means the RAM runs at 1333MHz speed which is the default for all current processors. Depending on motherboard it will not be automatically clocked to the higher 1600Mhz speed but you need to manually set it instead. There's no visible performance difference between the RAM running at 1333 or 1600 MHz speed, it will only make difference when you're overclocking the system.

DDR means double data rate, so 667MHz doubled is 1333MHz in case you were wondering about the numbers.

Yep, ^^ is completely correct, I recently made the same mistake too >.<

You'll probably need to enable XMP in your BIOS or manually set the speed there in order for it to hit your 1600(800).
