Hi!
I have an OMEN by HP Desktop 880-p1xx (which I think is this computer, though it's called something else). I have just replaced the original 8 GB RAM stick with these two 16 GB RAM sticks: G.SKill Trident Z Neo RGB 32GB (2x16GB). It says that the these RAM sticks should run at 3600 MHz but task manager says they're running at 2133 MHz. How can I fix this? I can't find any XMP options in BIOS.
Thanks!

See this, but it may not work with this type of computer.
Anyway given the significant risk I advise against this, see instead for other ways to improve the computer.
