What I'm considering...
5820k cpu
Asus X99-A motherboard (don't care enough about usb 3.1 to spend the extra $30)
HyperX Savage 16GB (4 x 4GB) ddr4 2400mhz Cas12
I went with low latency 2400mhz ram because I read about complications with higher speeds causing the cpu strap to go up. I just want to use xmp profile and raise the cpu turbo multi without other settings changing. Am I headed in the right direction? All other parts will be re-used. Also, will the thermalright spirit 140 power heatsink interfere with the top pcie slot?
