Asus tuf gaming f15 FX506HCB-HN1138 uses only 2660Mhz instead of 3200Mhz RAM speed

Hello everybody! I have a problem. Recently i bought a new notebook: Asus tuf gaming f15 FX506HCB-HN1138 which could use 3200 Mhz frequency speed. (because it is written on the website + the processor of the 11th generation + it had 3200 MHz RAM from the factory) After that, i bought one kingston ram, and add to second slot. Then I check ram speed, and that was 1330, but not 1600. Then i removed new ram and check ram from factory, which came with the laptop, and i see again 1330. I was very upset. After that, i checked different forums and decided to replace the ram with two SODIMM Kingston HyperX Impact [HX432S20IB2K2/16] 16 ГБ. And when i checked my ram with Hwinfo and CPU-z, then i see just 1330 Mhz, not 1600. Can some one help me, what can be problem? I am so tired to find different information about my problem. In the bios (FX506HCB.304 version) there are not any function to control ram. The warranty has fallen off when i opened notebook cover to switch ram(. I atach screenShots, please help me guys!

Same problem here. My model is TUF FX506HC with last BIOS 306. Unfortunately, it's the reason of lower performance against other brands notebook model.

FX506HC, 506HCB, 506HE and 506HEB have same problem.

Reset BIOS ?

Problem was solved with last BIOS(309) version update.

It is not fixed, I'm only running at 1600mhz when I have 3200mhz 2x 8 GB sticks.
