Should DDR3 1333 Ram running at 667Mhz?

[Jenome]

Greetings

Recently downloaded some system info tools, Piriform Speccy & CPU-Z.
Note that my ram statistics is as 6GB ( 2 x 2 GB, 2 x 1 GB) DDR3 667Mhz.

But from my final receipt, I'm supposed to get DDR3 (Dual Channel) 1333 Ram.

Qn: Is a DDR3 1333 Ram supposed to run at 667Mhz(averaged)?
(My ram is Crucial PC3-10700)

Yes, that what the 1st "D" stands for in DDR.... "double" the number you see in CPUz to get RAM speed.....isn't marketing wonderful ?
