Wrong ram for cpu?

[Solar_nacho]

So im building a pc with an i5 7600k and i bought 16gb 3000mhz ram and i checked on the intel site that my cpu can only support up to 2133. Is it going to break something in my pc or is it ok?

Check with your mobo

My mobo supports up to 4133

You'll be fine.

Pretty sure all Intel CPUs that support DDR4 only say  2133.

So long as your motherboard supports your ram's speed and there are no faults with the hardware you shouldn't have any issue.

Ok, thank you

Just so you're aware, when you boot up the system for the first time you'll see your DDR4-3000 memory is running at its default frequency of 2133 MHz. Load into the BIOS and enable XMP (that usually means setting it to "Profile 1"), save changes and reboot. Your motherboard should detect the correct settings and run your memory at its advertised 3000 MHz.
