Question Compatibility Question

[USMC7312]

Hi,

I have purchased an EVGA X.299Dark motherboard and an I7-7800X CPU. I just wanted a second confirmation that the G.Skill Trident Z DDR-3200 (PC4 25600) (model F4-3200C16Q-32GTZR) memory is okay to use.

I ask because I was looking at the Intel site (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/core/x-series/i7-7800x.html) it mentioned the supported memory is DDR-2400.

Thanks

There is a difference between "officially supported speeds" and "actually supported speeds" - so yes, your RAM is compatible with the CPU. You can also use XMP profiles to overclock your RAM, and this CPU should not bat an eye at it.

Definitely compatible:
