Corsair vengeance 4gb ddr3 1600mhz ram showing only 1333 mhz in bios

[msathis4]

I have set up a CPU with i5 3570K, P8Z77V-LX MB, Corsiar 500W PSU, GT560 Asus Graphics with Corsair 4GB 1600Mhz vengence RAM.

When checking the RAM speed in BIOS it shows only 1333Mhz not 1600MZ. Is any settings need to be updated on the BIOS so that it will recognize the defaul speed of 1600MHZ ?

On the BIOS, you should be able to change it to 1600.

Not sure where exactly to change the settings. Is it from AI Tweaker ?

 

[Inductor]

Yes you can do it from there Look at memory frequency.

 

[msathis4]

K will check it.

There's a very anti-climatic reason for this, but the long and short of it is that you should be able to just manually set it to 1600MHz like Inductor suggested.
