RAM frequency not maxing out

[LKM2WE]

RAM frequency only maxing out at 1200MHz when i have 4 2400MHz Sticks. I have the hyperx fury ddr4 2400MHz ram

Motherboard?
Often, motherboards will only support up to a certain frequency of RAM. You may have to OC to get those higher frequencies.

I have the msi z170 gaming m7

On that board you would have to overclock the RAM, hence the little * next to the number on newegg.
If I'm not mistaken, all you will have to do is add a bit of voltage, but I don't really play with my RAM (or have nad that particular problem) so consult this otherwise: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ram-overclocking-guide,4693.html

Okay thankyou

Back it up a bit here...DDR = Double Data Rate. The actual operating frequency of your RAM is 1200Mhz, because DDR transfers data twice per cycle your "effective" frequency is 2400Mhz. Your RAM is running at the correct speed leave it alone.
