New Z270 build, what DDR4 ?

[FishD]

Hi All,
Considering a new build with
ASUS LGA 1151 STRIX Z270E
i7-7700k

Case, PSU and cooling as my signature.

Hoping for 5.0ghz OC

Any recomendations for 16gb dual DDR4 (ill be buying on amazon.co.uk) for this board.


Cheers.

Id grab some ddr4 3200-3600mhz sticks. Brand isnt terribly relevant, just looks and price.

You'd rather consider a 8700k+z370 though, unless you have a real good deal on this specific combo.

agree, I wouldn't buy 7700K+Z270 when 8700K+Z370 will be soon in stores in similar prices

That's what I was saying... shot at the 7700k but the strixf board and whatever just plain old nothing fancy whatever that geil evo spear 2400mhz...hope it's supported should be..Does Asus not tell what ram they they think should be running in it. just gonna put the d14 on it and just whatever or something see if it fires up jumpered...
