Default Re: Quick Ram Question (Please at least look at)

Thanks for the reply.

I made this because I found a forum where a gskill technician can reply to Q and A so whenever the admin lets me become a member, I can post it.

ImageShack - Hosting :: gskillramoa3.jpg

I bought them both from this link:

Newegg.com - G.SKILL 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Desktop Memory - Retail
(what's funny is the heatsink in the photo is different than both of my heatsinks, yet its suppose to be the same ram)

My main question is why would a ddr2-800 stick that ran 400mhz and 450mhz both on 2:3 divider not run more than 313mhz when the divider is 1:1 (let alone 400mhz, its rated speed).

Is 1:1 harder on the ram then 2:3? If that's the case I understand but if not, this makes no sense whatsoever.
