Is this the kit you bought?

That kit automatically sets to 1333Mhz until you enable XMP or manually set it to the advertised specs in the motherboard bios, which also requires a motherboard that allows manually changing memory settings or to enable XMP above 1600Mhz. What is your motherboard model or if it's a prebuilt system, what brand and model?
