Hey guys so i ordered some corsair vengeance 16GB (1866 MHz) and just installed it but the speed was showing at 1333MHz so i went into bios and changed the settings but it will only allow me to change to a max of 1600 MHz even tho I checked my MOBO (msi p75ma-p45)and it can allow up to 2400 when OC (i have an i7 3770). Any ideas how to get it higher than 1600?

Thanks

In the Bios, you should have an option for XMP. Toggle that and it should allow you to do your 1866mhz overclock.

If not, 1600mhz is fine. You might as well call the difference nothing.
