I've seen this question with different CPU versions and RAM speeds but I wasn't sure. I created my PC build containing the following CPU and RAM:

CPU: i7-7700k
RAM: HyperX 16GB Fury Black DDR4 3200MHz CL18 HX432C18FB/16

I do not know if they will work together to their full extent.

Thanks for the help in advance. ^^

I never knew MOBO's had a speed limit as well. It's an ASUS PRIME B250-PLUS. I checked intel's site and it said that this:
Memory Types: DDR4-2133/2400

This is why I asked the question in the first place. It should work with 3000 MHz though at least that's what I found by searching the site.

Thanks for the help in advance

Actually the 3200 MHz I picked was cheaper then the original 2400 MHz. The only change I could find in 16 GB Rams were a few dollars but that isn't much.

Thanks for the answer
