Are you looking in CPU-Z ?
What you see there is just half of DDR (DOUBLE Data rate), real frequency is double that, about 1333MHz. 1600MHz memory should show as 800.
If you want to change to that, look up memory multiplier in BIOS and change it a notch. Also can look in manual how to do that and/or set "XMP Profile" if both have it as option.
