RAM Frequency troubles with ASUS Sabertooth MOBO HELP

I have for the longest time tried getting my 1866 RAM to work at that frequency but the only way my bios will launch is if it is at 1333. I will post below everything in my computer, with the links to exactly where I got them, if anyone can help that will be greatly appreciated!

This isn't even close to my first computer built but I still am not very knowledgeable when it comes to the bios and it's settings.

MOBO: ASUS Sabertooth 990X

CPU: AMD FX-9590 Vishera (with liquid cooling)

RAM: 2X8GB G.SKILL Ripjaw X series 240-pin DDR3 1866

GPU: XFX Double D Radeon HD 7970 3GB

The following I don't think you'll need but I'll add it anyways:

Welcome to the forum!

Just making sure that all bases are covered:
1. Have you tried enabling the XMP profile?
2. Have you tried manually entering the frequency, base timings, and DRAM voltage in the bios?
3. Have you tried each stick individually?
4. Have you run memtest on each stick individually?
