    Hello, I just received my z690 cto and I'm doing all the tests I can think of to check that everything is working properly.
    I have one question about the memory.
    I ordered it with 4GB ddr3 working at 1066Mhz and when I run the program cpuz the memory is recognized as DDR3 PC3-8500F but the "DRAM Frequency" is reported as 532 Mhz (instead of 1066).
    Can anyone tell me if it is normal or if it should report 1066?

    Thanks

    It's correct. 533x2 = ~1066
