What RAM for z370 with i5 8600k coffee lake?

[ph_str1k3r]

So i was looking around for ram because it was the only thing I didn't have ready to order yet. I'm buying the z370 asrock killer SLI/ac and cpu is intel i5 8600k coffee lake six core. Dunno what RAM to get. I don't like over clocking but if you insist it's necessary sure... Thanks in advance!

My favorite go-to picks for RAM are:

1.) Corsair Vengeance LPX
2.) G.Skill Trident Z
3.) G.Skill Ripjaws V Series

... 3200MHz CAS16. It's technically overclocked, but you simply enable the XMP profile just the same as you would with 2666Mhz RAM.

DDR4-3200 CAS 16, 16GB (2x8GB) is likely what you want to look at (good speed and best for $$). I tend to just get whatever is the best value at the time. Gskill ripjaws are usually 150$ range.

Edit: I do like the corsair vengeance posted above and think I would buy them. Realistically the others are going to preform the same.

You could select RAM from the extensive Qualify vendor List (QVL) on ASRock website.

RAM from the QVL have been tested to work with your motherboard model.
