I received my 4x4GB sticks yesterday; I've seen low-profile RAM before, but this is ridiculous! It barely sticks up above the white RAM-release levers on the socket! Anyway, I'm running it at the stock DDR3-1600. I have tried running it on AUTO and on fixed 1600. CPU-Z gives me the same readings. Is this normal? It really doesn't look right.
Could it have something to do with my weird motherboard (Asrock P67 Extreme 4 Rev B) not giving a true 100FSB? It reads like this with any RAM I've used in this board. I'm not overclocking anything. Everything is on AUTO.
In addition to what Sunny said, I'm on the same board and have no issues. But is your bios up to date?
If the system is fine, then don't bother updating, but if you find you cannot adjust the ram or something else, this might be worth doing.
In the bios I have my FSB set to 100 manually.
