[SOLVED] What DDR-5 is best with 14700k?

[Kawdam91]

Hi,

Thinking of picking up a Z790 Tomahawk wifi tomorrow and wondering what DDR-5 ram is best?

I mainly game and 2 x 16gb sticks should be plenty. I have a 14700k in a mag mortar b660m with ddr-4 which isn't ideal.

I was looking at the following 2 models:

CMH32GX5M2B6400C32 - 32-39-39-76 @ 6400 mhz for £127.99

CMH32GX5M2B6000C30 - 30-36-36-76 @ 6000 mhz for £126.98

Open to any other options for a similar price range, unless spending much more is absolutely worth it in terms of gaming performance. I am not clued up on DDR-5 what so ever so any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

I'd stick to DDR5-6000MHz dual channel ram kit.

Won't matter because the memory controller is tied to your CPU. 400mhz is negligible btw.

Take your pick.
performance and price of each is essentially the same.
Faster ram has worse cas which negates some of the benefits of added speed.
Intel performance is not sensitive to ram.
Just buy enough up front.
