HUSABER Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Navigate to System/Library/CoreServices/Loginwindow Right Click LoginWindow and choose Show Packages /Contents/Resources/english.lproj/AboutThisMac.Strings Open with TextWrangler. "ABOUT_BOX_ALL_RIGHTS_RESERVED_FIELD_FORMAT" = "All Rights Reserved. %@"; "ABOUT_BOX_BUILD_FORMAT_STRING" = "Build %@"; "ABOUT_BOX_BUILT-IN_MEMORY" = "Built-in"; "ABOUT_BOX_LICENSE_AGREEMENT" = "License Agreement"; "ABOUT_BOX_MEMORY_FIELD_FORMAT" = "4 GB Silicon Power DDR3-1333"; Here change Memory "ABOUT_BOX_MEMORY_LABEL" = Memory; "ABOUT_BOX_MULTIPLE_PROCESSORS_FIELD_FORMAT" = "%@"; "ABOUT_BOX_MULTIPLE_PROCESSORS_L3CACHE_FORMAT" = "%@ L3 cache per processor"; "ABOUT_BOX_PROCESSOR_LABEL" = Processor; "ABOUT_BOX_SERIAL_NUMBER_FORMAT_STRING" = "Serial Number %@"; "ABOUT_BOX_SINGLE_PROCESSOR_FIELD_FORMAT" = "2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo"; Here change Processor :wink2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Are you sure it's running at 1600? In some cases it will default to 1333 until you set it up in the BIOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3.14r2 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Most likely it is a cosmetic issue. It can be set to display the correct value (or the value you want to see) via SMBIOS.plist keys. Editing AboutThisMac.Strings is certainly not the best idea. <key>SMmemspeed</key> <string>1600</string> Please also check the BIOS settings i.e. what RAM speed is set there.
