Need help looking for the right Ram that is compatible with my Motherboard

[thebomb51]

I'm going to buy an ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-E motherboard and an Intel Core i7-8700K cpu to go with my 1080-Ti gpu.

Unfortunately i need to buy new ram as well . I want to buy the G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) (PC4 25600) F4-3200C16D-16GTZR from amazon, but I don't know if its compatible with the motherboard.

Can someone help me figure out if its compatible or lead me to the right direction?

That RAM is fine with that motherboard.

Use this website, it will tell you if there are any compatibility issues with your build for the most part.

Are you saying i should buy the i7-9700k instead?

I would. It should have better thermals and has better base boost clock speed.

Ok thanks for the help Kashimi and jewie27

I had no idea that the i7-9700k came out today. I will be buying this cpu instead.

The new i7 will work on that motherboard you've picked as well.
