Hey all! Building a new rig with the ROG Strix X870E-E gaming wifi board. What's the absolute best RAM to pair with it for gaming? I'm aiming for top performance, budget isn't really an issue. What speed and timings should I be looking at for the best possible gaming experience?

Corsair Dominator Platinum, in my experience. Runs great, 6000MHz is sweet spot.

Before you max out RAM speed, double-check the motherboard QVL. I had issues with crazy speeds. G.Skill's decent, but confirm compatibility. Higher speed RAM is not always as good as expected.

Before you max out RAM, remember diminishing returns! G.Skill's 6000MHz CL30 kit is often the sweet spot for price/performance. Be careful of chasing marginal gains that cost a fortune.

Corsair Dominator's pricey, but is it *really* worth it? Research crucial. Check user reviews, 2024 data.

G.Skill's good, but DIY's cheaper. Watch YouTube, save $100+ on pro install. Worth it?

Hey! Crucial RAM's amazing, but in Arizona's heat, consider a kit with robust heat spreaders like G.Skill Trident Z5. Prevents thermal throttling during those long gaming sessions!

Before chasing raw speed, prioritize RAM with a robust heat spreader. G.Skill's Trident Z series is popular, but make sure your case has adequate airflow. Overheating kills performance *and* stability, so be careful!

Forget chasing every last FPS! I've run G.Skill 6000MHz CL30 for 2 years. Rock solid stability trumps marginal gains. Less headache = more game time, trust me!
