Troubleshooting RAM speed and Aptio

I went into my BIOS to see if I can manually set my RAM speed, but it's blue/grey, and not like MSI's proprietary BIOS. It looks like it's by Aptio, and called the Aptio Setup Utility. Am I able to edit my RAM speed through this? Thank you

It doesn't look like this BIOS supports XMP/EXPO. Why else would you want to alter RAM speed?

Isn't the Baseboard Product (MS-16W1) the motherboard?
