Can I put RAM clocked at 3 Ghz on a Motherboard that supports 2.1 GHz memories standard, but can OC up to 3.4 ghz ?

I was thinking of buying a Asus Z170-DELUXE mobo with with some Kingston memories.
The thing is, the memories are clocked at 3Ghz, while the motherboard's specifications for ram are as follows :
3466(OC)
3400(OC)
3333(OC)
3200(OC)
3300(OC)
3000(OC)
2800(OC)
2666(OC)
2400(OC)
2133

My question is, if I try to set the ram to its 3Ghz standard, will that automatically OC the processor or if I will have any other issues ?
