Hi Overclockers community, I require some clarity with a question regarding the 13900kf CPU from Intel.
When buying RAM for the 13900kf there are several builds that make use of DDR5 6400Mt/s or greater, however if I take a look at the memory specification of the 13900kf it mentions "Up to 5400MT/s" which doesn't add up.
Could some advise me as to what this means and also if there are any problems with the following build please?
 
Please remember that competitor mentions are not allowed on the OcUK forums. Your URL has been automatically redacted.

Also, I've tweaked your name, it wasn't really suitable.

It means the memory controller is overclocked, but OCUK still support the warranty on the PC, so there's nothing to fear. If you want to run it at spec, you can do that pretty easy (or just ask OCUK to use slower memory).

So as I understand it, despite the memory specification of the 13900KF suggesting a RAM speed of up to 5600MT/s, this limit can be increased by overclocking the memory controller?

Correct, but like I said, I believe your warranty on a pre-build is 3 years and they'll cover you if the CPU breaks.
