I am hoping you guys can help me make sure that my Team Vulcan memory is running at 1600Mhz.
Memory: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820313283

In know on the first image (memory tab) that you double the dram frequency to get the actual frequency, which would be the 1600, but on the SPD tab it says the max bandwidth is 800. I am not sure if that also needs to be doubled to get the correct speed. Thanks for your help!

Yep. CPU-Z shows you the Bus speed, not rated speed, so 800 is correct. 800 x 2 = 1600.

Not sure why the "Bandwidth" says that, but it's fine.

Edit: It says PC3-12800, so that's right. It would be much lower than that, if it really was running at only 800Mhz rated (it would be PC3-6400).
