[SOLVED] Trying to find a right ram kit, help!

[Verybusy44]

I7 - 9700k
z390 a pro (runs 2666mhz ram speed)
rtx 3060 ti

I am trying to buy a new dual kit of RAM.
I will be using xmp, not manual tweak.

Q. The game i play requires very high ram speed, so my initial thought was to get 4000~4400mhz one.

such as https://www.amazon.ca/Patriot-Viper...=p_85:5690392011&rnid=5690384011&rps=1&sr=8-7
or https://www.amazon.ca/Patriot-Viper...=p_85:5690392011&rnid=5690384011&rps=1&sr=8-5

will those run at advertised speed on my pc with using xmp?

or any suggestion?

thanks in advance

everything above 3600mhz for intel wont provide any performance increase if you're only using it for gaming.

really?? is it only for amd then?

really?? what is it for then?

Faster data rates and bandwith tends to benefit memory intensive apps like rendering, or compute programs. Unless you're using ryzen (which benefit from dual channel and faster speed ram due to architechture), just go find a 3600mhz ram with the tightest timing (under CL16 if you could)
