um......

you usually do not need a new motherboard to change the ram.

there are 12 different ones. they use the same socket but have different power requirments. 

 

is this a new CPU, Ram and mobo combo?

should be able to set it to the spec of the CPU. which is 2666mhz. 

 

which would be set in Bios.

you go into Bios and set the ramspeed. more expencive boards do this automatically, tho not all.

that might not allow to change the ramspeed, but that is 6th gen. 

 

no 9th gen board will work. you will have to look on the used market for a Z170 or Z270 board.

Only thing it says about pc specs, can’t change the gray stuff

go from main to advances. should be an option to change it there. since its a prebuild board. its not uncommon for features that normal H series boards would have access to are locked out.

Welp.

 

That would mean. A 100 series or 200 series board to get to higher speed. 

 

Would look on the used market first as retailers are usually overpricing these parts that are nolonger being produced

No you need a 100 or 200 series or to buy a 8th/9th gen CPU to work on a Z390.

Wrong socket/chipset

 

6000 series only do 100 and 200 seires boards.

 

8th gen and 9th gen use 300 series boards. 

 

These sockets are not intercompatible.

9400f works with 300 series boards. 

 

The 6600 works with 100 and 200 series boards. 

 

300 series use the 1151v2 socket. 

 

100 and 200 series use the 1151v1.

 

These two are not intercompatible.
