    Hi,

    I installed 16gb of Hyperx 1600mhz. If I check from CPU-Z I think they are still running at 1333.

    After installing Hyperx 1600 and OCZ Vertex3 (port1) last night I didn't do any changes in BIOS. Just a clean windows 7 and recovered the alienware look and feel as per guidlines in a couple of posts here on the forums.

    So, how to actually make use of 1600 mhz ?

    I have stock BIOS settings (v A04) just changed the SATA to AHCI to make Vertex 3 work and LPM fix in registry
