RAM overclock

[Luukfilm]

Hey guys,

 

I just got new 4x8gb modules in my system. They are advertised to reach 3200mhz,

(link to modules: https://www.megekko.nl/product/0/1741206/G-Skill-DDR4-Sniper-X-4x8GB-3200MHz-F4-3200C16Q-32GSXWB?r=tweakers.net&utm_source=tweakers.net&utm_medium=cpc)

 

When I installed the modules they were set back to 2133mhz. In my systems manual it says it is able to perform RAM modules till 2400ghz, So I was looking for a way to upgrade this.

 

I installed  Intel Extreme Tuning Utility, since it seems the only way to overclock my systems components.. I succesfully upgraded the 2133mhz to 2400mhz, however it seems possible to overclock them to 3100mhz. My question is mainly, will this potentially harm any of my systems compenents when I do this?

 

Thanks in advance!

The RAM OC is usually done from the Bios, by enabling XMP profile or set it manually.

What is your motherboard?

Ye it seems there´s no way to do it that way on my system.
