Product: x360 Pavilion 13-s101ur
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I upgraded RAM in my x360 Pavilion transformer.

Factory installed RAM was DDR3L 1600MHz 4GB + 2GB.

I installed a DDR3L Kingston HyperX 1866MHz 8GB + 8GB but RAM works at 1600MHz.

How to set higher RAM frequency?

You can't do it. The motherboard runs the memory at 1600 speed. My advice is on a consumer laptop there is no need or use for performance or gaming memory.

Thanks for quick answer.

Crucial can work at 1866MHz?

Crucial sells the memory and guarantees it will work (boot and run stable) but not that it will run at 1866. The memory works fine but downclocks to run at 1600. Crucial also offers DDR3-1600 for laptops that will run only at 1333 or 1066 for example.
