Hi guys, I just built my first PC and noticed this issue described in the title.

 

I have DDR4-2666 Corsair Vengeance LED 16Gb as Ram but according to the Bios they,are only running at 2133Mhz.

 

I have the MSI b350 pc mate mobo. How can I run the RAM at their given speed?

UEFI/Bios will show the XMP Profiles (at least for Intel boards, not sure about Ryzen) that'll let you clock the ram at the rated speed (or maybe a setting or two beyond the rating on the label (eg: 2400MHz on label, 2666MHz XMP setting that is stable), depending on the RAM).
