That bundle saves money.

You got a heatsink? as one is not supplied with the K cpu.

Yeh, I've got a Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3

Question about ram... To achieve speeds of over 2133mhz, does the CPU need to be overclocked so it's 1:1 with the RAM? Or can the ram be set at higher speeds without affecting CPU clock speed. Been out of PC building for a few years now..

Dont have to touch the CPU at all, just load XMP in the memory section, save+exit.
