I own an MSI H310M PRO-M2 PLUS motherboard. I wanted to try overclocking my RAM. My memory is G. Skill Trident Z 16 (2x8) running at 2400MHz with a CL15 timing. Could I push it up to 2666MHz? That won't work because of the motherboard, right? And if I do that, will my gaming FPS go down noticeably? Thanks so much.
