The default profile is probably 1333 anyway unless OC'd but RAM will only run at the lowest speed installed. Its not a good idea to mix n match modules tho and it could easily give you problems sooner rather than later. Hard to say without knowing exact model and system specs whether you can set RAM freq. in BIOS. Check your RAM info in CpuZ

What are the model #s of the sticks? How many of each? The mobo and CPU? will want to set manually. The new stick, being a different freq took all down to the default.

I'm confused, all you've posted is 3 different sticks all at 1600. As far as the Kingston ram goes, the lga1156 boards can handle 8Gb sticks, as long as you are running a x64 version of Windows. If you have a 32bit (x86) version, you'll only see 4Gb.

Need to decide what you have and what you want to do, sort of a waste for us to give a suggestion if you are just going to ignore it - I'm out
