Ryzen 7 1700 memory speed question

Hi there.  A few days ago I rebuilt my computer after the previous motherboard and / or CPU failed.  I'd got both second hand for £60 over three years ago, so it did OK I guess.  Anyway, I've gone for a Ryzen 7 1700 on a Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro motherboard, with 16 GB Corsair DDR4 RAM rated at 2666 MHz.  The machine is running fine so far with no stability problems at stock settings, but I've found the BIOS and Windows report the RAM is clocked at 2133 MHz.  Does anyone know if this is because the CPU has a fixed core clock to memory clock ratio it will run at, meaning I would need to over clock the CPU to get the RAM up to its stock speed?  Thanks for any advice.

i can say this - GA doesnt deliver good bios for their AM4 boards

100% stable is my system only with 3000MHz instead of the kind-of stable 3333 which will provide random boot-errors

PC: R7 2700X @PBO + RX 580 4G (1500MHz/2000MHz CL16) + 32G DDR4-3200CL14 + 144hz 1ms FS P + 75hz 1ms FS
Laptop: R5 2500U @30W + RX 560X (1400MHz/1500MHz) + 16G DDR4-2400CL16 + 120Hz 3ms FS

Thanks guys.  I've enabled XMP and the memory is indeed up to its rated speed.
