Looking at getting the MSI PRO Z690-A DDR4 for a 12700K I have. Seems like a pretty good board for the price. I only plan to do a little overclocking of the CPU and RAM. Nothing extreme. Probably go with a Thermalright Frost Commander 140 to cool it or a ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280. Just not sure it the AIO is worth the price difference. For ram is it better to get 4000C18 or 3600C16. 3600C16 seems to cost a little more. Figured I would go ahead and get 32gigs now, so I don't have to worry about adding more later as I expect the system to last awhile. Hopefully as long as my 2500K. I know B die is the best, but there seems to be a big jump in price going from say 4000C18 to B die. I just don't see it as worth it.
I was actually looking at the OLOy Blade RGB 32GB. It is currently on sale for $139. RGB isn't important, but the sale price is nice. I haven't ran OLOy before, but it has a lot of positive reviews on Newegg. Does it matter that that OLOy kit isn't listed on MSI's site? Other OLOy kits are listed. Or, should I really stick to their list?
