There are two main ways to increase the performance of your RAM. In the first case, the clock speed of the RAM bus changes, and in the second, the timings of the memory modules.
Instructions
Step 1
Practice shows that the second method allows you to achieve a greater performance gain and is less likely to damage memory modules. Use the Speccy program to assess the current state of the memory cards.
Step 2
Install this utility and run it. After preparing information about the state of the system and devices, open the "RAM" menu. Look at the timings for each RAM module. Now restart your computer and enter the BIOS menu.
Step 3
Open the Advanced Setup tab and find the Memory Settings menu. Pay attention to the six main items of this menu: Memory Frequency, Memory Voltage and 4 timings.
Step 4
First, turn up the voltage applied to the memory modules. Change this value to 0.1 Volts. Find the highest timing metric. Decrease its value by one. Return to the main BIOS menu tab. Save changes and restart your computer.
Step 5
Run the standard memory module check utility. To do this, open the Administrative Tools menu and select the Windows Memory Checker function. Restart the computer and wait until the analysis of the status of the RAM modules is completed.
Step 6
If the check does not reveal any faults, re-open the BIOS menu and reduce the next value of timings. Perform this cycle until the memory check system detects a problem with the modules. If you find any faults, undo the last changes by resetting the delay to its original value.
Step 7
If your computer has memory cards of different frequencies, carefully monitor their status. If, while working with a PC, you observe short-term system freezes, reset the BIOS menu settings, returning the original state of the memory modules.
