So on boot up of my computer I found that the ram runs at 1333 Mhz as default. In order to fix this, I changed the default value to 1600 in the advanced mode of the bios. After saving and returning, I changed the drop down menu by the ram settings to "Profile 1." This fix did change the title of the ram to 1600 Mhz at the top, but it says below by each slot that the ram in A1 and B1 are both set to 1333 Mhz. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance!

here is a google drive link to a photo of the main bios page:

Solution
XMP shows 1600, boot and take a look at CPU-Z, (free downloadable app) and look in the memory tab - if it shows 800 you are good ast 1600 (It's DOUBLE data rate (DDR) so true freq x 2 = effective (1600)
