Hello all,
Starting a new build and I'm a bit lost on a few things. I'm almost 60 yrs old and a little slow, so bear with me. Thanks for the great posts Tradesman, but now I'm questioning everything.
My hardware...
ROG Rampage Extreme VI x299
I9-7900x
GeForce GTX 1080Ti FTW3
Intel 900P Optane
So if I look at the cpu memory specs it reads "DDR4-2666" Does that mean if I put a 3600 kit in I will only yield 2666? The motherboard specs out at 4200+OC What happens to the difference?
Sorry for all the questions, I trying to learn. Hopefully someone else can benefit from my uneducated questions as well.
What would be your suggestions for best/fastest RGP memory to use that will be plug and play?
Would this be a good choice? F4-2400C15Q-64GTZR
I found this but its not in the Gskill QVL for my board. F4-3600C17Q-64GTZR
Should forget the pretty lights and look at one of the Ripjaw series?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
