DDR4 4133MHz Ram. Will it even run at 4133MHz in my new build?

looking at some G.Skill DDR4 16GB 4133MHz Ram. At £200+ I'm a little reluctant to fork out on it if the rig I'm buying won't even support it. My motherboard choice claims to support 4133MHz (oc) ...it's that oc (overclocked I assume) note next to the ram specs thats got me a little lost heh.

Looking at a z370 board / with a 8700k to go in it / 1070ti for the gpu.

This stinks of a simple basic ram question, so someone please explain. Thanks :confused:
 
Corsair CMD16GX4M2B3466C16 Dominator Platinum DDR4 16 GB (2 x 8 GB ) 4000 MHz C19 XMP 2.0 Enthusiast Desktop Memory Kit with Dominator Airflow LED Fan Kit - nochange outa £240! savage

Looking at the above as a wiser choice then, not least cos it's marked as supported on the asrock site. 4133 is not. Elusive is the 4300mhz sticks. Overclockers don't stock it, nor does anyone else. Found one source for it - £360.99! ...I think not.

Ta for the heads up on where I'm at. Been baffling me this ddr4 lark.

(Excuse the oversized text by the way, heh. Please someone amend it if you can. Ta)
 
I think the K6 is fine. Here it can run 4400Mhz so 4133Mhz probably just XMP enable.

I did not try this board but Taichi for sure can run 4266+ without issue.

On z270 the cheaper asrock boards also very solid for ram but in this generation I did not actually try it. Either way on 4 dimm a good imc is essential for, 4k plus
