The 8700k memory controller operates at 2666mhz, which might seem odd since running RAM at 2400mhz could cause bottlenecks. It's not worth it for most users either. Faster memory speeds do improve performance, and 3200mhz offers the best balance of cost and speed. My mistake was using a 7700K on the brain; I fixed that in my previous post. Thanks!
