In this article, we will discuss how to increase RAM frequency on a Gigabyte motherboard. If you have a Gigabyte motherboard installed in your Windows system, you can easily increase or overclock your RAM frequency.
Even if you have 3200 MHz RAM, Windows still limits it to 2133 MHz by default for various reasons. However, we are going to overclock it without damaging our system. If you want to overclock the CPU on a Gigabyte motherboard, follow the linked guide.
How to Increase RAM Frequency on a Gigabyte Motherboard
Before increasing the RAM frequency on your Gigabyte motherboard, check the base RAM frequency supported by your RAM module.
To check your RAM frequency, open Task Manager and navigate to the Memory section under the Performance tab. Here, you will find your base RAM frequency.
Once you know the highest frequency that your RAM module supports, you need to download some utility tools for the Gigabyte motherboard to increase the RAM frequency.
For that, follow the following steps:
1. You have to know your gigabyte motherboard model number. To do so, search for System Information on the search options and open it.
2. Click the System Summary option and look for the motherboard’s model number.
3. Now, search for the gigabyte motherboard model number on the Gigabyte website.

6. After that, restart your computer and open the Easy Tune application.
7. Now, to increase/overclock your RAM, click on Advanced DDR OC, and from the drop-down menu next to memory frequency, select the highest frequency that your RAM module can support.
8. Finally, click on the Apply button to save the changes.
Conclusion
That’s it! You have increased RAM frequency on Gigabyte motherboards without any complicated steps. However, you will need to restart your system to apply the changes. Once done, check your RAM frequency in Task Manager.
If you can’t do this on your Windows 11 operating system running on a Gigabyte motherboard, you may need to enable TPM 2.0 on your system.
