Can I increase my cpu ram speed 6000mhz by overclocking while cpu ram limit is 5200mhz.(

Note : My ram is already 6000mhz)

Fll specs : 

CPU - Ryzen 5 7600

Motherboard - MSI PRO B650M-P AM5

Ram - G.Skill Trident Z5 16GB DDR5 6000MHz

Kingston KC3000 1TB m.2 gen4

Or should I buy 5600mhz ram kit and overclock my cpu and ram altogether?
