Why it shows only 800mhz instead 1600mhz ?

You didn't set the speed in the BIOS probably.
If your ram has XMP profiles use those.
Otherwise you'll have to manual set the speed, timings of the ram.

Not quite. DDR means double data rate, where the modules send data on the rising and falling edge of the clock signal. The means it sends data at an EFFECTIVE rate of 1600mhz while the ACTUAL clock rate is half that.

Your settings are fine, leave them alone...

I'm sorry but this is just plain wrong. The other answer above is correct.

Incorrect, Windows 8 and Windows 10 show the effective ram rate in Task manager.
He is basically running at half the speed of his kit.

He needs to set up his Ram using XMP profiles or manually setting it.

There is a point there ^
I'd rather get a cpu-z shot.
