Installed Corsair Vengance LPX DDR4 (4 x16 GB) 2400 MHZ RAM in a Dell XPS - 8910. According to CPUZ and Speccy, the RAM is running at a slower speed:
64.0GB Dual-Channel Unknown @ 1064MHz (15-15-15-36).

According to Dell specs, the slots are rated at 2133 MHZ. I have read the other posts about similiar outcomes of "not as advertised" ouy of the box.

Do i really need to overclock and tweak something in UEFI to get close to 2133 MHZ?
If one starts experimenting with these settings and something on the board gets fried, does this void the Dell warranty? Where can I find the specific settings(alternative timings and voltages) that need to be adjusted to achieve 2133 MHZ or have I been victimized?

The memory's frequency is probably be calculated in two channels, showing 1064 Mhz for each channel, meaning 2133Mhz in 2 channels. DDR4 can't even operate at lower values AFAIK. It is usually how the value is shown.

I think It's working correctly.
