[SOLVED] Why can't I enable XMP in bios

[sadgpunoise]

I just bought another memory stick for my PC because I wanted more FPS in games but I'm not getting any
So these are my components now (copied from speccy):
Operating System
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
CPU:
Intel Core i5 7400 @ 3.00GHz 34 °C
RAM:
16.0GB Dual-Channel Unknown @ 1197MHz (17-17-17-39)
Motherboard:
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. H110M-K (LGA1151) 120 °C
Graphics:
SyncMaster (1680x1050@67Hz)
4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (CardExpert Technology) 24 °C
Storage:
111GB Samsung SSD 750 EVO 120GB (SATA (SSD)) 34 °C
223GB KINGSTON SA400S37240G (SATA-2 (SSD)) 30 °C
223GB KINGSTON SA400S37240G (SATA-2 (SSD)) 28 °C

One of them is a corsair 2400mhz stick
The new one is a Kingston 2666mhz stick
I don't get why there is no option in the bios for enabling XMP and why I'm not gaining more fps than before
I think they are both locked at 2400mhz because of the motherboard limitation

Your RAM is running at 2400 according to that info. What speed do you think that two different RAM should run at ? 2400 is the highest COMMON speed.
You are lucky they are running together at all.

Unfortunately I couldn't find the same model because of shortages, and I know their max speed is 2400mhz... do you know why I'm not getting more performance in call of duty warzone?

No. I don't game so I have no help with game performance.

16GB ram is recommended for Warzone but it doesn't stop there. Quad cpu's are suffering and the graphics card is also entry level. If want better performance, then look toward upgrading both.

Could go 7700/7700k depending on price new/used and also depending what better suits you. Overhauling is probably going to make better sense.

Overhaul examples;
8700k/9700k on a z370/390 board or Ryzen B450 Msi Tomahawk Max, Asus Crosshair/Gigabyte Aorus x570 running a 3600x or 3700x with 3200/3600MHz ram.

Gpu; 1070Ti or higher.

Alright thx for the help

RAM clocks won't produce that much visible difference in gaming. As long as you have enough, all should go smoothly on that end.
The GPU is the main component when it comes to gaming. Select that first and then upgrade/overclock CPU if needed and to the extent needed.
As long as your CPU doesn't bottleneck your GPU, very high clock speeds won't make a giant difference for gaming aswell.
(Apart from a couple of games that are very processer heavy).

Adding ram generally won't directly improve computing/graphics performance. However, if because of adding ram, you are now running dual channel vs single, there's a slight increase in performance--however, this is usually so slight that it only really shows in benchmarks.
