I have 4x 4gb corsair vengance 2133mhz DDR3 installed however my APU is only compatible up to 1866mhz

I understand I cant go above the limitations of the APU however im only clocking just under 1600mhz at the moment, how do i go about increasing it to 1866?

current set up is as follows
motherboard: Gigabyte GA-F2A88X-D3H Socket FM2+ AMD A88X DDR3 ATX
APU: AMD A8-5600K 3.6GHz FM2 4MB 100W Black Edition
Memory:Corsair 8GB (4x4GB) DDR3 2133Mhz CL11
 
Solution
For an APU, 2133MHz is about the best price/performance if using the igpu. If using a dedicated gpu, it won't make much of a difference in most applications.
