RAM only shows at 2133 Mhz while actual RAM Speed is 3000 Mhz

Assembled components are:

1. i7 8700
2. ASUS TUF H370 PRO
3. Corsair vengeance 8GB X 2
4. Adata XPG SX8200 - 480 GB

According to specifications, i7 8700 supports 2666 Mhz and board also support this speed then why my default speed is 2133 Mhz ?

Did you go into BIOS and manually set ram frequency to DDR4-2666MHz? Speaking of BIOS, are you on the latest BIOS update for your motherboard?

After change the XMP profile to 3000 Mhz, it's speed automatically come at 2666 Mhz.

Thanks
