DDR Stands for Double Data Rate, Which means it effectively doubles your frequency by Transferring double the data per clock cycle.

CPU-z is going to give you the Actual frequency the ram is running at, While they advertise ram being 2133MHz! when it really is only 1066, But because of DDR it would be equal to having 2133Mhz of non DRR ram.

1066.5Mhz x 2 = 2133MHz

SPD stands for Serial Presence Device, which is in the RAM Module that tells the bios what setting to use. This is because sometimes BIOS's do not understand frequencies above 1333MHz or 1600MHz, and so you have to manually enter the desired frequency in the BIOS.

Your RAM's SPD is 2133MHz, So when you put it in you Motherboard, It sets the speed to 2133MHz just in case you Motherboard doesn't support 3000MHz. Which your Motherboard does support that.

3000MHz is the Tested Speed with overclocking, Which is increasing Frequencies and Voltages and adjusting memory timings.

I probably didn't explain everything so I recommend researching some by your self, Its very cool how that stuff works.

(Everything looks good!)

SPD stands for Serial Presence Device, which is in the RAM Module that tells the bios what setting to use, (I believe this is for compatibility). So you have to manually enter the desired frequency in the BIOS.

Your RAM's SPD is 2133MHz, So when you put it in you Motherboard, It sets the speed to 2133MHz just in case you Motherboard doesn't support 3000MHz, Or can't Recognize it on it own.

You motherboard supports overclocking so you can find some guides and get the MHz you paid for!
