X51 R2 Compatible RAM @ 1600mhz?

Hello All, Hope this finds you well. I have a quick question regarding comatible RAM for the X51 R2. I made a mistake of upgrading to G.Skill Ripjaws a year or so ago and even though I purchased 1600mhz speed sticks, due to the lack of XMP access within the BIOS screen, they run only at 1333mhz.

No blue screen or 'Windows is shutting down', it's just as if you yanked the plug out. The only way to turn the PC back on is to unplug the power brick and to
