Hey team, I'm in the process of upgrading my PC after 6 years. I plan on swapping out my current MOBO, CPU, and RAM. I bought the GIGABYTE H370 AORUS Gaming 3 WiFi, and wanted to pair it with an i7 8700K.

Upon further inspection I realized that this is a budget MOBO and won't support OCing. My main concern will the i7 8700K fit in the socket? Will I atleast get the turbo speeds advertised on the CPU? I really don't plan on pushing the CPU any further than the turbo speeds.

Also, will the RAM that I purchased function fine with this MOBO? CORSAIR Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4 2666MHz C16


Thank you!
 
Solution


Yes that is correct , no issue with TURBO and 2666 is the right choice on H370.
