2666MHz showing as 2133

[zgam3s]

My ram show as 2133 instead of the 2666 as it should,

I have Xmp ON , And its set to 2666 yet it keeps showing as 2133 on taskmanager and CMD.

I have my ram in slot 1&3.

Motherboard: z270-p
Cpu: I7 7700k
Ram: corsair vengeance 2666mhz 8gb X2

So it is at 2666MHz. Windows is often wrong, specially if RAM was changed without new windows installation.

Looks right to me.

IIRC, "get speed" only returns the JEDEC standard, so 2133MHz would be normal.

Not sure about Task Manager though...

Cross-reference it with another program, like HWinfo, Specy, Aida etc.
