Building now..

[Laquer Head]

Screw it.. blowing some dough on some core components for newish rig.

Grabbing an MSI Z270 M6 AC board and probably the 7th gen i5 K series.. i7 might be overkill...

Looking for opinions on Ram .. guess I'm sticking to 16gb.. but first pc looking at ddr4 so wondering should I just stick to ddr4 2400 or get something else?

All this will be just an overhaul from current rig and it will go to the wife..lol

You can always get some DDR4-3000, they're not that much more than 2400.

Wait... if it's your wife's computer, why does it need to be overclockable?

Can't do Ryzen,,, its just not in me. I give AMD credit though!

Ah, what's coming over from your existing build to the new one?

 

[Laquer Head]

All I need is:

Motherboard
CPU
RAM
and thinking bout that optane shizz.. but need to read more!

 

[Laquer Head]

I'll level with you.. I threw a bit of fit earlier and threw the Gaming 3 Z97 against the floor... that was technically 'her/backup' machine.!!

 

[Intel_man]

Optane atm is for budget builds for now. Nothing for enthusiasts yet.

Has a reasonable salary, buys garbage PC components. For shame!

Maybe you should post on /r/personalfinance instead of a computer enthusiast forum
