So I just built a new PC around a month ago and have been trying to figure out since then how to get my RAM speed up to its listed speed.

The most popular thing I have seen is to put it in XMP mode which I have done. But, when I go into CPU-Z and look at the Memory section, it still says that it is at 1333MHz. Even though in the BIOS it says that it is set to XMP mode at 2166MHz. This has been puzzling me for the whole time and I have been searching around the BIOS and on the internet for anything to change but can't find anything about it.

Here is a link to my PC Specs HERE All of the drivers are up to date on the hardware so there shouldn't be any problems with that.

Any tips and help is greatly appreciated!
