    I have an M17x R1 which I bought with what I thought had 8GB of 1333mhz memory. But when I check the memory in CPUID it shows 667mhz. However Dell has come to my house and replaced my memory cards before and I'm pretty sure I saw that they were 1333 as well. But her is what CPUID shows. Maybe someone can explain this to me.
