You could upgrade to 32 gig of RAM or consider the 5900X.

Oh and BIOS may need a flash before you can use CPU.

If it's just for gaming then a 5600X or 10600k would be fine.

agree if it is just gaming 10600K or 5600X would be absolutly fine they give you virtually the same fps in games as their bigger brothers
