I'm a bit confused, I'm not really a novice to PC building but I thought I'd do my mother in law a solid and upgrade her PC for free . I picked up a matching part number 8gb ddr4 strip (3200mhz) both seem to be hynix 1gb chips single rank .
Task manager has the correct info at 2933 MHz which is the 3400g memory bus limit , however CPU z has it at 933mhz instead of an expected 1466 (2933/2) . Due to it being a HP the bios is on hard lockdown.
So which app is telling the truth ? Most say CPUZ but dam that's miles out of the expected frequency. Some have suggested memory can boost and scale but others say that's a myth on desktops?
