Question Ram and the cpu overclock

[Barrdock]

My ram(4 slots) runs at 2400mhz(Xmp profile on) and my i7 7700k(Cryorig H7 aircooler) at 4,6 ghz(overclocked a bit already).I would like my ram to run at 2600-2700mhz and my cpu at 4,8ghz.What exactly have to change in bios besides hz?

the ram kit you're working with?

What BIOS version are you on for your motherboard? Honestly, there are two ways you can go about with ram overclocking.

1| You can go into BIOS(after making sure you're on the latest version) then manually select the frequency to DDR4-3200MHz, save and exit but your mileage can and will vary.
2| Sell your existing ram kit since they're mediocre at best, and pick up a DDR4-3200MHz dual channel ram kit.

One thing to note, the max memory supported by the chipset for your motherboard is 64GB, maxing out your ram capacity and then trying to overclock it will result in stress to the IMC(Integrated Memory Controller) and would mean you lower your overclock or pump more voltage to the ram modules and the processor and/or degrade the controller in the long run. Had you looked at a 2x16GB ram kit, with tight latency, DDR4-3200MHz, you should be able to extract performance from your current system.

I need 64gb of ram.If i overclock it just a bit 2600-2800 mhz?

To overclock your ram, you will likely need to raise the speed, increase the timings and raise the voltage.
Experimentation is in order.
Past that, there will be an interaction with your cpu overclock.
If your ram was capable of a good overclock, the chips would have been used in 2600/2800 speed ram in the first place.
But, you could get lucky.
