All RAM is 2133 ram (ddr4 anyways) until you enable xmp. What is the rest of your system? It will run at 2133 if it's a nonk Skylake or 2400 if non k kaby lake.

You'll need a z170/z270 board and a k series processor to get to 3000mhz


Go into BIOS and enable xmp to do so

1| When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs inclusive of your OS. Please list them as:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
OS:

2| Have you made sure your motherboard BIOS is up to date?

3| If the ram kit you got in hand (at this moment of time) is exactly the kit as you've linked, then you've got the right ram kit. The question is, did you get an H170/270, B150/250, H110 motherboard? If you got anything outside of a Z270 motherboard then the ram speed you're seeing is right, since the chipsets outside of Z series don't allow the end user to go beyond 2133MHz frequencies.
