Essentially, you ned to overclock the cpu to drive memory at 1600. This thread may help you:

You wouldn't have to overclock, but I would hope that with that CPU and motherboard, you'd want to overclock. =]

Just increase your memory multiplier to 12x.

You COULD set your BCLK to a higher value, and lower your CPU Multiplier, so that the Memory Multiplier * BCLK = 1600MHz.
