That's normal, because it's DDR (Double data rate) It's monitored as only running at half of the speed it's actually running at. My corsair dominators at 3000MHz are only monitored as 1500Mhz too.

CPU: Intel Core I7 7700K & Corsair H100i v2
Mobo: Asus Maximus IX Hero
RAM: 32 Gigs @ 3000Mhz, Corsair Dominator Platinum
GPU: Asus Strix 1080 A8G
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 500gb
PSU: Corsair HX750i
Case: Fractal Design Define S

It's all correct. The real speed is 1067 MHz, but since nowadays we are using DDR memory, which stands for Double Data Rate, the effective speed is 2133 MHz, which is the speed the RAM module is set to work on.

DDR stands for double data rate, which means your speed is only half of what says when you buy it.
