Sorry but XMP isn't an all powerful magical thing. What a mobo CAN run doesn't mean you can simply throw it in and it WILL run at that.

The MC (memory controller) of the CPU is true determining factor as to what data rates you can run, for 3200 it normally takes a min of a K model CPU and often requires an OC of the CPU to run even 2800 - let alone 3000, 3200 and higher. Additionally here it's a H110 mobo which are limited to 2133 (although if you have an original or earlier BIOS they did offer higher support before Intel put their 'fix' in.

But in most places, i see that only Z170 mobo can do this. I just want to make sure, that if i get faster ram, i can actually use it. Is it as easy as it sounds? When i enable XMP will it automatically change the ram speed to 3200Mhz? Or is there anything else needed?

I highly doubt memory will work at 3200mhz on h110 budget motherboard. That motheboard you mentioned does not support XMP (according to gigabyte site).
Even my X99 motherboard does not work without overclocking and tweaking bios manually with 2666mhz+ memory.

Anyway, that's actually interesting question, let's wait and see what *Memory* experts have to share.

Guys check here it is told that even after xmp the maximum frequency it can run at is 2133mhz unless the xmp in other motherboards can cross their given ram frequency unles it is z170 chipset."https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/H110M-PRO-VH.html#hero-specification"
