@Alexander0212,

 

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

 

Unfortunately, the fastest any RAM will ever run on an OMEN By HP 875-1000 Obelisk Desktop PC (3VH40AV) is 2666 MHz.  You can see that, for example, in this UserBenchMark "HP System OMEN by HP Obelisk Desktop 875-1xxx" User link: UserBenchmark: HP OMEN by HP Obelisk Desktop 875-1xxx Compatible Components.

 

What you are experiencing is that certain RAM -mostly 'fancy' so-called gaming RAM such as Corsair Vengeance, is getting stuck at its default ("SPD") speed, such as at 2133 or 2400 MHz:

Solution: return this RAM and get RAM (Crucial, etc.) that will actually run at 2666 MHz.

 

Hope this was helpful.

 

Kind Regards,
