I cannot help with the real high speed ram but I can tell you what I have going on. Z390 FTW, 9900K @ 5.2 GHz, G-Skill 2X 8GB 3200 (F4-3200C14D-16GTZSK) running at 3333MHz 14-14-14-34 at stock voltage. I have no problem hitting 5.2 on GHz on CPU with this ram. I can only say that it runs but cannot verify it is the best option. Hope you get it sorted.

that's pretty cool that you're able to get that decent clock out of that ram, nicely done. kevinc313
Yeah that's really wonky, I'd say to go with one of the tight 3600 16-16-16-36 b-die kits on the g.skill QVL and yolo it, might need to tune it but it stands a good chance of running at XMP.

that appears to be a great candidate kevin thank you for this. btw has anyone noticed the fact that EVGA Eleet identifies the 9900K as a Kaby Lake cpu?

I got to thinking after reading thru k|ngp|n's thread here, https://forums.evga.com/m..aspx?m=2913749&fp=1I have a chance to step up to the 390 Dark, I'm guessing in the long run this would better running the 9900K as well as a host of more options for ram, thoughts?

2 DIMM slots is going to limit your RAM options if you need 32 GB and something on the QVL.
That being said, something that is not on the QVL does not mean it won't work, only that it was not tested.

I recommend this, its Samsung B-die, Im using it at 4400 cl18, on my Z390 Dark with my 9900k at 5.1 daily. Ive pushed the ram up to 4800 at CL19, during benchmarks.

Interesting kit and a really good price. Not that long ago it would have been twice as much. I grabbed one from Newegg...got to love that no RGB.

Thanks guys, after much research and dialogue with G.Skill, I've decided to go with the G.Skill recommended kit below: https://www.gskill.com/pr...6-36-1.35V32GB-(4x8GB) I truly believe that with further BIOS revs that things can only get better but for now this 3600 stuff which G.Skill tested quite thoroughly will be ideal.

Sounds good, same as the white/silver kit I recommended above, which is now OOS. I didn't see the black kit as being in stock at the time, but it may have been. So if you really want it, I'd get it ordered immediately while it's still in stock. https://www.newegg.com/g-...dram/p/N82E16820232584https://pcpartpicker.com/...2gtzkk?history_days=60 Did they say anything about their testing of kits of above 3600 and why they aren't on their QVL?

btw what's your take on the 32G (2x16G) kits, e.g. these:
https://www.gskill.com/qv.../F4-3600C17D-32GTZ-Qvl
That's low bin bdie, lower than 3200CL14, somewhat fast but loose, seems to sell for under $200 if you can get your hands on it. Solid deal. https://pcpartpicker.com/..ch/?q=F4-3600C17D-32GTZ The other 4x8 kit is definitely better ram, fairly high end stuff actually and worth the $285 imho. If you're not fussed about XMP or money you could just get the 4000CL19 2x16 and clock it best you can, that's what I upgraded to on my MSI board which is one of the few that can run it at XMP, and I was able to get a deal on over the holiday period. 3200CL14 2x16 is almost always a good choice too.

Hey happy to help, I'm certainly not an expert but recently did hours upon hours of research when troubleshooting my memory problem and then justifying an expensive upgrade. Made the noob mistake of buying a motherboard with great 2x memory support and throwing 4x16 of non-QVL'd lower end memory on it. Durr. Was able to resell my old kits but took about a 50% loss due to the dip in ram prices. That 4x8 is a very solid choice, likely the best 32gb kit for that board, glad to hear g.skill approves of it.

Just a quick FYI, I ordered the 4x8 kit as mentioned and G.Skill confirms it is Samsung b-die and I will have it up and running by Thurs eve.
